daniel's POV ~
my therapist. told me i needed to relieve myself of stress. he asked me what i like to do? i said writing music and playing my guitar. he told me to write a song. i told him i could only think of lane. he told me to just write about her. i thought day an night. journal constantly on my lap, thinking about how i ruined my life. i can fix it. i must fix it. cause she looked happier. and then my inspiration fell right at my feet... happier. so i wrote, all about her being happier. so i wrote...
Walking down 29th and park
I saw you in another's arms
Only a month we've been apart
You look happier
Saw you walk inside a bar
He said something to make you laugh
I saw that both your smiles were twice as wide as ours
Yeah you look happier, you do
Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody love you like I do
Promise that I will not take it personal baby
If you're moving on with someone new
Cause baby you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too
And until then I'll smile to hide the truth
But I know I was happier with you
Sat in the corner of the room
Everything's reminding me of you
Nursing an empty bottle and telling myself you're happier
Aren't you?
Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody need you like I do
I know that there's others that deserve you
But my darling I am still in love with you
But I guess you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too
I could try to smile to hide the truth
But I know I was happier with you
Baby you look happier, you do
I knew one day you'd fall for someone new
But if he breaks your heart like lovers do
Just know that I'll be waiting here for you
and i finished. putting my feelings on paper. singing each verse. carefully playing each note just right. feeling the rhythm coursing through my veins. feeling something lifting up inside me with each word. each note. relieved a little bit of my pain. i decided i wanted more than me to know what pain is. so i headed to the park. guitar and notebook in hand...
