April 9th, a day of unforgiving pain
The day you told me you just wanted to be friend
A day unlike any other in my life
Forever changed by a day
Left holding a shatter heart
You sucked the love out of me
Such as a vampire would my blood
Left me curled up and dieing
Like the killer you are
I was warned that you would hurt me
But I refused to hear the words of wisdom
The scars all too fresh still
Months have gone by
The season has changed
Another change is upon us
Yet you're still on my mind
I've found another but can't move on
Been told the truth will set us free
Yet my truth had been my warden
My prison cell, my hell
I love you!
Why do the shackles stay?
Bonding me to the memory of you
To the blissful misery of my ignorance
Very time I venture to another
April 9th replays in my head
As an old film replay on the television
The weeks I took sowing my heart back together
The hours spent covering the tears you cause
God, how blissful ignorance is!
April 9th showed me that neither of us was ready
But left me doubting if I ever will be ready for love!
