Affair

I MISS HOW THINGS WERE BEFORE
WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND YOU WERE A CORPSE
BEFORE YOU BECAME REAL IN MY HEART
WHEN I WAS TEN AND WE WERE APART

THEN SUDDENLY YOU APPEAR AT OF THIN AIR
AND SAID THINGS THAT MADE ME WISH I WAS DEAD
“IM SORRY THAT I LEFT” YOU LIPPED
AND I BELIEVED YOU LIKE A B

I MET YOUR DAUGHTERS AND YOUR WIFE
SINCE I WANTED TO BE A PART OF YOUR NEW LIFE
BUT THEN I REALIZED YOU DIDNT CARE 
YOU JUST WANTED TO FIX YOUR BIG AFFAIR

A WEEK LATER YOU ABANDONED ME AGAIN
AND I FELT THE SAME EMOTIONS LIKE WHEN I WAS TEN
NOW I MUST REMEMBER HOW IT WAS BEFORE
WHEN YOU WROTE A LETTER AND RUN LIKE THERE WAS WAR
