The Story Untold

Every time I look in the mirror I see as you would have seen me Every song I listen to I hear my heart beat to your name And I’m at the edge of a mountain Wondering what lies above, And what lies below. My silly heart breaks every time I smile When the truth hits that you’re as far as reality That I’ll never walk hand-in-hand with you through cobbled lanes Or giggle at the sound of secret words we made What is left after the dust clears Is a cold soul, devoid of your fire An angry heart that’s broken beyond repair And lips as dry as ice. No more fast cars to play my favorite songs, No more morning teas or late night hot chocolates An end to all the undeserved kisses And every time I believe, that the poison is drained from me There’s a bit more that floods my veins Who can show me all that I can be Beyond this mesh of nerves and bones Who can show me what to believe That right will be righted and wrong will be wronged. Surviving from moment to moment, I’m not alive, nor am I dead And I just want to forget the way I felt The way you made me feel Scratch it off me, wash it away, Make me brand new Put me back together Like a shiny diamond, hard and strong But I’m at the stop sign, looking left, looking right Can’t turn back, don’t know how to move ahead. I’m a rebel now, Never settle Never settle down There’s nothing to love me now Nothing to stop me some how Except the bitter, not sweet memory of you And the pain’s never really gone And it’s never really going to disappear, But maybe it could be invisible, Invincible, could I ever be Who better to tell me than you? Or me?
