Everywhere
I tried to dress up
I tried to go out
But everywhere I turned
He appeared
Every little truck was blue
Every voice was his
Every song I heard
Everyone that walked in the door
Couldn't focus
Couldn't think straight
Couldn't shoot a simple game of pool
Every time my phone rang
My heart stopped
And every time it wasn't him
My heart broke
And when the bartender asked where he was
I just wanted to hit my knees
Couldn't even go out for a night
So I brought myself back to this empty house
I laid down in this empty bed
And I lost it
Every car that went down the road
Sounded like it pulled in the driveway
Every car door that shut
I had to remind myself
It wasn't him
I had to make myself get up
And try to clean my face
But when I looked in the mirror
All I saw
Was the reason he's gone
And I lost it all over again
How do u make the pain go away
How do u stop replaying the good times
How do u fill the emptiness u feel inside
I try not to txt
I try not to call
But after all this time
It's just not that easy to do
I'm sorry
