aftermath

It's 4am and I just got in from some party Drunk again, phone numbers written on my body I would call, but if you don't answer the phone I may burn down every inch of this brown stone Fourteen days go by, I'm better on my feet Keeping busy, let my vices take the lead Never thought you'd be the one to walk away Never thought I'd ever bet someone to stay Here in the aftermath, Tears falling down onto my lap where you used to lay your head I can't sleep in our bed, twin flame you left for dead And all I know is here, lies the mess you made I have to pay for your mistakes, Pick myself up off the floor Pray one day that I'll know more Than the sound of slamming doors, aftermath Three months later and my friends all think I'm fine I'll cry later just to spare their peace of mind I'm doing yoga, and I run in my spare time If I run fast enough I'll chase you out my mind These days I'm learning love can look a lot of ways So many years trapped in your rosy-colored eyes One day I'll miss you, won't be so painful to say One day I'll let somebody else hold all my days Here in the aftermath, Tears falling down onto my lap where you used to lay your head I can't sleep in our bed, twin flame you left for dead And all I know is here, lies the mess you made I have to pay for your mistakes, Pick myself up off the floor Pray one day that I'll know more Than the sound of slamming doors, aftermath Someday I'll look back, shake my head, and laugh of this crisis in my path, aftermath I'll be all grown up, all fall in and out of love In my diary, that's all you will be Just a memory of my past In the aftermath, Tears falling down onto my lap where you used to lay your head I can't sleep in our bed, twin flame you left for dead And all I know is here, lies the mess you made I have to pay for your mistakes, Pick myself up off the floor Pray one day that I'll know more Than the sound of slamming doors, aftermath You're left in the past With the old me free at last I survived my heart intact I survived your aftermath
