Just remember
that he’s the one who tore you down
re-read the past
you know it didn’t last
it couldn’t last
Lay to sleep
and hope dreams will
lift you to where you were
before the sorrow filled your eyes.
Hope you don’t wake up to these head aches
hope your heart won’t ache when you wake.
all your mind needs to know
is what he feels when he wakes.
or the regrets that’d swarm him
if there is only one goodbye left.
but he hides it so well
concealed inside
you’ll never know
Just smile and pretend you’re alright
Move on when you know
tonight he’ll be the only thing
to get you to sleep.
