The Road To Forgiveness

The Happy Ending That Never Was

I heard a whisper once, and then it built up 

I drowned in it all, saw the end of my coffee cup

It was never clean, leaving bits and pieces

Of my heart, I gave it away for rent and leases

There was never a happy ending, 

I knew that from the beginning

My eyes fluttered shut, the sun shining bright

Just waiting for me to cry myself to sleep at night

Everytime I hear another story about him

I see my future flicker out, I see it dim

And when the moment comes, I know where'll I'll find love

It'll be too late, with black dresses down there, from above

My clouds will storm on rainy night and day

If you knew better, then why didn't you stay?

My happy ending is now to forget, 

My heart's guitar is strumming a fret

And fading out, so close to a song

But will head back, to it's quiet shell, where it shall belong
