Tape and Glue Can'T Fix My Mirror
I thought that this feeling
Of falling/flying and pain/healing
Would all just go away
But there's a gaping hole in my heart
That grows each day
There's always this pulling at my heart
Just listen, you might actually hear it breaking
Each snag is just another crack in my red mirror
No matter how hard I try to fix it,
It's as if the tape and glue weren't meant to be there
My memories of us flood my mind
But as my mirror cracks, tears pool my hazel eyes
They say to wait for the right person, for that one special kiss
I never felt that until him, and I felt those sparks glow
Now he's gone
And as I feel everything inside of me tearing apart
I know now that I should have hid that spark
Because he doesn't feel the same
Now he's moved on, yes, he's gone.
I see him once in a while
Laughing, acting as if nothing had ever happened
Oh, how I wish I could forget as quickly as he had
But unfortunately the damage is done
And no matter how much I repair my mirror
The glue and tape fall off.
