SymPATHETIC apologies

It must have been nice to sit there with a smirk on your face as I writhed in pain at the foot of your bed
Tell me, does it make you feel more like a man to watch innocence die slowly, crushed in your hand
It was never enough to say 'I love you'
No it was never enough to leave the lights on at night
Just remember that I was the best thing you ever had

Old memories placed aside and left behind in faded photographs never meant that much to you
Those times when we laid together, your hand in mine as we fell asleep never meant that much to you
It was never enough just to say 'I do'
There was always a hidden motive behind romantic jesters
And I would always fall into that same cliché mode

Honey and Talc

Your kisses were as sweet as honey
Now they’ve become bitter as talc
And I can’t stand to hear your voice
Even though I already know the truth

Your sweet honey kisses turned bitter
Dry and bitter every time out lips meet
And I can’t stand to look at you anymore
I don’t want to hear those words of treason
But I know that you can’t keep them to yourself

Have you become that emotionless?
To let it escape through your lips?
Every time our lips meet you get colder
More distant and bitter with every kiss
Just don’t let me know that this is the end

I need to hear the truth, but don’t want to
We can’t go on lying to each other, we can’t
Just let go
Let go
Let me go

After all is said and done, remember what it was like to keep our hands intertwined at night
The way our bodies kept each other warm on those long cold nights, it was never enough
Just remember I was the best you ever had
And I won't say I'm sorry it all came, crashing down in the end
Keep this as a lesson learned the hard way
