My Life Is Empty Now.

I wanted to live my life...

(i didn't want to be tied down).

I said the wrong things...

I wouldn't make you my wife,

but a ring wouldn't change anything...

Marriage wouldn't make everything alright.

Belief is obsolete...

Your happiness wasn't love...

It meant nothing to me...

You're happiness wasn't enough.

Now i'm not the man that i want to be,

limited somehow by history.

I still have feelings that i thought would never last,

hindered somehow by the past...

And as time goes by so fast

i'm still feeling those feelings that i thought would pass...

See, i have been deceived...

Me...

Deceived...

But surely i can get through anything.

Surely i have that self belief,

for though there's hurt and pain

surely i should feel relieved.

Surely i should feel born again...

Surely i should be strong,

but when everything is so right

you're not prepared when everything goes so wrong...

And i can keep on telling myself

that things will work out somehow,

but my life is empty now.

limited somehow by history.

I still have feelings that i thought would never last,

hindered somehow by the past...

How did we get so far apart so fast?

I have been deceived...

Deceived...

But surely i can get through anything.

Surely i have that self belief,

for though there's hurt and pain

surely i should feel relieved.

Surely i should feel born again...

Now you want to talk,

but no more bringing up the past...

Would that last?

You want to talk,

but where do we start?

How do i tell you that my world has fallen apart?

Surely i should be strong,

but when everything is so right

you're not prepared when everything goes so wrong...

And i can keep on telling myself

that things will work out somehow,

but my life is empty now.

	it's so hard to move on, and mistakes are always eaiser to see in hindsight. it's better, as you say, not to bring up the past...how can we even resist, though? this brings out those contradicting feelings well- =( Respond To This Comment
