All About You

All About You

You drove the cut ten inches deep, and I don’t know why

Bond is fragmented as the words lash out, in obscurity I cry

 

Oh, you don’t comprehend my pain, you ran away

How is that fair?

I get first row seats, while you sit in the balcony comfortably

I want to scream, but who would hear me?

 

How do I start off by saying what stirs in me?

I could say I hate you, but it’s not fitting

And it would be a lie, I love you, but I’m still hurt

I’ve slipped so many clues, but you’re clueless,

Or either you refuse to hear it,

You’re all about you

 

I can’t shake it, I got the bad end of the stick

Always a kid on the outside, but inside I was already an adult

 

 

Sat back and watched you run free, as you wished

Half my time spent observing, noting everything that I don’t want to be

 

You left us behind, frustration and tears continue roaming this place

It all falls into my hands, what should be a husband’s dance,

But he made his escape years ago, and now have you…
