Another Day, Another Tear

In My Hollow Tin Chest

I lost you once

    Then I held you in my arms

    Playfulness and lightness were us.

I lost you again

    and it felt like home when I touched you,

    when you came back to me.

Now you'll never return to me

    and my sighs are stored in my chest.

    I'm slumped over with sadness and regret

    weighing on me.

I know my tears can't bring you back.

    for the longest time I've believed so.
