A Stone's Throw...
I'm in your thoughts like a rock you dropped
off a bridge into a river that has no name
easier to forget that way....
and as i sink, sink, sink to the bottom
I don't have to think, think about being forgotten
because the splash I made has soaked you to the bone...
And oh how you laugh....
as you brush your hair from your eyes
and try so hard to keep from splitting your sides.
your dress now clings so deftly to your form
and its from that moment my heartache is borne
knowing now I'll never see you again....
So make quick strides to escape this life
running straight through fields with your arms spread wide
singing a song of love's forgetfulness....
And by the time you reach your car
the sun will have dried me from your skin
and all you had to remember me by...
And you'll drive, drive, drive into another life.
I'll be ok...
I'll be fine....
(Though I know that that's a lie....)
Go on you deserve the best from life.
I'll be ok...
I'll be fine...
It's not as if you were ever mine...
(but maybe, I was yours...)
