The Knife


For some reason I can't help but look forward And I know this makes me seem a coward. But the truth is undeniable to say the least Like a lurking tiger, a roaming beast. You see it too, I know for a fact you do, That our inevitable end is here, our impending doom Because soon you'll be gone, and I stuck here And you will move on in this new life, that's clear. I wish you the very best, and every happiness I hope you succeed at every turn, trial, and test. I forgive you for leaving without me, that's life And I'll leave you my heart...might as well leave a knife. The knife is to kill me, as quickly as you can 'Cause with or without you, there is no other man Who makes me feel as loved, who can drive me insane Who is the reason for each smile and each jolt of pain. So I give you my heart, in the future and now It is all I have left, it is all I can allow One day soon you will move on in so many ways But never once will I regret our love filled days.
