Empty picture frame
I remember when i saw it i thought of us
How young we were, yet so in love
I thought of songs and things of such
That made me think of what there was
A spark... so mighty it could burn a city
Oh this break up was such a pity
What we had made me giddy
And i thought i was so witty
Thinking you would actually stay with me
I emptied the shelves of what reminded me of you, forgetting the past
I feel what we had diminished so fast
Then i hit the picture frame at last...
I stared at my reflection in the glass
"What did i do?" I finally asked
I hugged the frame tight as tears came my eyes
I broke down with all of the lies
I never wanted to say good bye
I've always wanted you in my life
But i suppose I'm paying the price of life...
I can't have you, as painful as that is
You have a life you want to live
But that doesn't dwindle this emptiness
Yet, my biggest question: why'd you promise?
If you didn't want me, you should have said so
Instead of making me feel so alone
I tried so hard, worked down to the bone
And still I'm stuck, i wish i had known...
I wish you told me when i decided to try
So I'm not stuck here about to cry
Every time that my phone is dry
And I realize you're not by my side
The frame's empty, like my broken heart
I guess it's my story, this is my part
I just wish i could restart
And tell myself that you'd tear me apart...
