One Line At a Time

Crying tears that won't come.
Looking for words that weren't said
Seeing you in love with her
Losing sight of myself
Waiting for impossible dreams
Reaching for impractical hopes
Learning lessons from my scene
Running all around in my head
Spinning the thoughts on a whim
Seeing the lies in your eyes
Clearing the minds for both of us
Setting to ease the confusion between
Letting you go a piece at a time
Regaining my heart as time goes on
Willing you out of my life for good
Saying it will all be ok
