Words

Words

They can lift you up

Stop your in your tracks

Make you better

Kill your tomorrow

Words

Sometimes you can’t take them back

So be careful what you say, they can never fade to black



Tonight you said you hate me

Sorry’s don’t make things better when we disagree

I know I can never fill your fathers shoes

I don’t want that job, I never had a clue.

I stand alone in the life I live

My rights and wrongs is all I can give.

Smoke dances around my lips in a hopeless serenade

I feel like I had a chance with you and our marriage parade

It’s over like so many of us before

Like the tears that fall from our cheeks bound to hit the floor

I seen this day long ago from afar

I had no idea it would hit me this hard

Even after all we have been through

To this day you show me why are days were so few

10 years is allot for normal people

Not for us who seen a lifetime at the church steeple

What breaks me are the syllables that roll off your tongue

Sorry's do no good as we hold on to that last rung

I don’t know why I hold on to these words I hear you say

You found a way to constantly leave me in dismay

You also said you don’t know who this man is who stands before you

That hurts because I’m the same man you married in that desert standing next to his crew

I don’t know why I’m so absolute

Maybe because my past has left me pollute

I hope I can forgive and forget

I will try, and will have no regret.
