The words you use on me will choke inside
Your mouth is closed but you still lie
You just let the days go by
Leaving accusations behind
Still expecting everything to be alright
But I'm not blind
I'm basking in hindsight
Everything is not fine
Even when I towed the line
It wasn't
It's funny the things we miss when we're busy being pleasant
When the company that keeps us is sometimes anything but
These words you use on me are not the type I wish to hear
They are gaps to fill your void from year to year
They'll leave you grieving
A never ending need without a hope of succeeding
Of never knowing me at all
But I'll gladly take the fall
For these groups of words never spoken aloud
Yet you were just part of the crowd
Of grievances worn proudly on your puffed out chest like badges you never earned
Because you never earned my time I just gave it away
And you used it to question me
Those doubts were never mine to carry
The results may vary
But the only thing that changed was time and my mind
