Silver Linings Playbook

Kian's Silver lining playbook I thought it naturally Celestial greetings From birds chirping Sweet smelling you greeted by smiling happy you I can't help but feel like love cheated both of us Not every story has a heroin who saves the day Some stories are devoid of a happy ending I'm trying to find my silver lining At first I cried myself to sleep Playing the what if game That's one you can't win Can't look back Gotta learn to forgive I was willing to sacrifice my happiness In order to give give give Can't squeeze blood from a turnip I kept waiting for a breakthrough But one never turned up So a year has past no sign of you Time is moving fast perhaps in a vacuum I have sucked away your scent No more perfume I have yet to cast away all those demons Perhaps the voices in your head talk to me too. I hope I meet someone who makes me just as crazy in love too! To me that would be winning It would be my silver lining
