What can I do to make you love me again?
What can I do to make you want to stay...
I am the piece of furniture
that comes without instructions...
I am the tattered photograph
carried as a memory...
I do not want to remain broken
for the rest of my life...
When we first met,
I could see a pain burning in your eyes...
My promise of love
came with no hidden conditions...
You wanted wands of magic
to wash away my pain...
The white light of grief is blinding,
I can no longer stand the pain...
I believed that I was heartless
because I never let myself cry for you...
Every morning,
every night...
You ask me what I am still afraid of,
and I wish I had an easy explanation...
There's too much going on
as confusion sets in...
