Alone

In a word you said it’s over
with a look you closed the door
there’s no need to keep pretending
anymore
I don’t need to say I’m sorry
I don’t have to compromise
I can tell the truth instead of
more white lies
(but) I reach for you at night
I trace your every curve
there’s a space on my skin
where your lips should have been
as I lie here alone
I’m staring at the fire
from my wooden throne
as my world turns to ash
now I can’t make it back
since you left me alone
let me tell you I was wrong
and I’ve paid for what I’ve learned
you got everything you wanted
I got burned
all the times I didn’t listen
all the nights that I wasn’t there
all that’s left is my attrition
and thin air
I reach for you at night
I trace your every curve
there’s a space on my skin
where your lips should have been
as I lie here alone
I’m staring at the fire
from my wooden throne
as my world turns to ash
now I can’t make it back
since you left me alone
I thought that we were not that serious
pleasure just to pass the time
now the loving words you said
are on repeat inside my head
you think I’m made of stone
but I’m broken and alone
I reach for you at night
I trace your every curve
there’s a space on my skin
where your lips should have been
as I lie here alone
I’m staring at the fire
from my wooden throne
as my world turns to ash
now I can’t make it back
since you left me alone
