we haven’t learned from this before
i thought things might have changed
i left you on the cutting room floor,
deranged
a long time’s passed since we were bold
and had no use for sense
the tale your lover never told,
intense
but here we sit… so many tales , so many lies
it doesn’t fit, those weak attempts, those feeble tries-
yet here we lie….so many times, so many tries
i can’t believe my love was a surprise
–
can you recall that summers night
love sauntered out the door?
there was no argument or fight
just bored
i chased it’s shadow down a lane
that had no light or curb,
i came back empty and in pain,
disturbed
the reasons for the wars we fight
don’t always coincide
with what our heart just knows is right,
decide
so here we sit… so many lies, so many tales
we don’t exist, our weak resolve, our courage frail-
and then we lie…we try our best to make the sale
i can’t believe this love was bound to fail
