Okay, so she’s left and you’re alone

But you just can’t make her go away

And her eyes still pierce you to the bone

And you sit and waste another day

You pray though you don’t know if you’re heard

No miracles, no faith, and no belief

And prayer seems wasted on the wind

While you sit face to face with grief

You tell yourself it’s not so bad

And you close your eyes and try to sleep

But it makes you sick to fool yourself

Cause the memory still cuts you deep

Somehow you make it to the morning

And the sun makes it clear that she is gone

And the day sings dirges of depression

As you write yourself another song

Now that you’ve lost your whole world

What have you to say for yourself

You knew you would lose eventually

Do I hear you blaming someone else

You got to shake this from your head

Though your pain inside goes round and round

You got to stare into yourself

And find the joy this pain has found
