A Fly In a Web

I’m running towards you
You’re pushing away
In the dark
Where you left me
I’ll stay

You’re stuck on her
But you’re all I have left
Her touch isn’t one you forget

Did you spin her the web you spun me?
Promises to make the future a reality.

Were they hers before they were mine?
An empty house
A restless mind

Then I came along
You found a distraction
But you know the future

Isn’t what the past was.
