And after all this time, you'd think it'd be easy
To just pick up all these tattered pieces
Or to feel just fine seeing you instead of sick and queasy
To just go on like nothing and forget all the love and teases
Of the fondness we shared, so long ago
When I loved love and living just was
But I'm still begging for my heart to let go
Even though, it never does
And it is sad when I try to sleep at night
I know sleep will never come
I slap myself when I think of your hug, nice and tight
And when it comes to your kisses, I chase them with rum
I like that taste, better than any kiss
Better than your taunting lips pressed to mine, such a seductive embrace
I have to admit, I wonder if you're happy of this
You know, leaving me torn and stitched together with such sickly lace
I bet you think it is pretty how the lace flutters around my neck
Or how it looks against my bound and bloody heart
Are you listening to me or do you need a sec?
It must be hard for you to catch up, you never were too smart
I wish you'd hurry up and get a clue, but it'll take too long for such a thing
So just say goodbye and I'll walk away
To listen to long lost angels sing
A melody just for me, so that maybe one day, I'll be okay...
