Did You See My Tear
Did you see my face when you walked away...
All things promised fell apart and went their way...
You couldn't turn around to see if I had a tear...
Blame was spread and heartache was all too clear...
Who used who was a question that covered both our faces...
We shared the guilt and washed it away not leaving any traces...
I turned around and watched you walk into another day...
Left only to wonder if either one really ever had their say...
My tears ran slow like a shadow on the wall...
Words I couldn't scream, I was trying not to fall...
But you still never saw my face to see if the pain was real...
Just maybe we both ran away from a love too afraid to feel...
