"I can't stay"
Is what you said
As you headed to the door
To leave.
"One day"
Is all that I said
And nothing more
As I watched you flee.
You didn't stop
To even ask
What I meant
As those words as my last.
You held the lock
While the key rest at the bottom of your flask
All this time you spent
To figure out the past.
You searched for me
In the same dark room
That years ago
We once shared.
"Where can I be"
You thought to yourself
As the smoke set in at a steady flow
You could hardly bare.
We're both walking a fine line
Where we can both fall
Right into each other's traps
And be destroyed.
This love that I can't define
Something that I don't know what to call
Has fallen flat
And cannot be made into anything more.
You find
That I cannot be found
And you don't know where to start
Your search for the fire we had is pointless.
The coldness will remind
You of something that is no longer around
Because I have taken my heart
And all of it has turned into numbness.
Song: "Slacks" by St. South
