well, last night it was our final talk
the time we had the love we lost
now I know that good things only end
pictures of you in your wedding dress
got me thinking how my life’s a mess
and knowing that we won’t be friends
so this morning it was all regret
and research on the internet
long sleeves in the summer heat
at the market in the cooler aisle
I took break to cry a while
I hope dead eyes can be discreet
because outside the sun is shining
but in my heart it’s pouring
now it’s orange juice and Neosporin
well, last week it was a big surprise
everything was sharper than I realized
I thought nothing was as fragile as a heart
it was wine to wash down Ambien
and hoping for an accident
that’s when I saw how easily flesh can part
there must be a better way
to release the pain I’m storing
now it’s orange juice and Neosporin
and a better man would know when to say when’s when
but I’m not smart enough to know when to give in
if I were I wouldn’t be so Goddamn broken
but I am
last month was living Hell and dying hope
now I know that it’s a joke
when they say that time heals every wound
all that time has done so far
is turn my scabs into scars
but the cuts that hurt ain’t healing no time soon
because every night’s a dark night
every morning I am mourning
now it’s orange juice and Neosporin
