Piper (Vent)

I know that people change

But I thought that we would stay the same

In a web of your lies

Didn't give me a good reason why

Thought you were my family

Now you're nothing to me

So when the bottom falls

And goes up in flames

I'll lay the past to rest

And forget your name

There's nothing left for us here now

Let's be honest

I promise

I'm never looking back

For my sake

All the games you played

The promises you made

Couldn't finish what you started

Only darkness still remains

Want you to text me

Say that you miss me

You're around no more

No more

Though this love of mine

It just won't stop

I woke up and walked a million miles today

I’ve been looking up and down for you

All this time it still feels just like yesterday

That I walked a million miles with you

Summer always fades away

I never thought we'd drift apart

Even when the seasons change

You know I'll never be too far

Well it's a mystery to me how you keep on slipping in my mind

And it's downright dirty that this old wound won't heal with time

I don't ask

For everything we've done has passed

Who cares if we will meet again?

It's obvious that we're not friends

Are you out there, somewhere?

What are you up to? Have you changed your number?

I've been trying to call you since April and now it's October

I'm not overthinking but I think about you a lot

And lately I am just an afterthought

My other half was you

I hope this pain's just passin' through

But I doubt it

I know we've grown apart

It breaks my heart in two

I miss your company

The closeness we once knew

I miss you, took time but I admit it

It still hurts even after all these years

I'm begging you please stay

I'm begging don't go

Tell me what I've got to change

And I'll do it, I'll do it for you

I left a message on your phone

You never called me

Found myself walking down your street

Why did you never notice me?

You keep on turning pages for people who don't care

People who don't care about you

And still, it takes you ages to see that no one's there

See that no one's there

Everyone's gone on without you

For better or for worse, I don't know

But for what it's worth

I made you my whole world

And I’ll miss you

This is for you

Cause it’s time to start again

But I’ll miss you till the end

You don't know me anymore

The world is falling at your door

And I can see what's meant to be

It's better off that way

Saw you out with your new guy

I am yesterday

You didn't even say goodbye

I am yesterday

I never thought twice

'Cause you were my number one

I put you first 'cause

You were my only thought

I would give it all back for

A chance to start over

And rewrite an ending or two

Because my body overflows with scars from you

I can't go on

Please fade away, please erase them

Hey, why not throw it all away?

Maybe you won't even notice

But maybe my love will just never fade

If tomorrow I were to die, would you grieve for me?

Cooled emotions that once burned, now so empty

All that remains is one distortion of "love"

I won't forget you, so even though we can't meet again

Pretend that we could

It would be nice if we could hang out again though

So smile and turn your back on me

With loneliness always comes pain

A light is growing colder in the night sky

The light that you gave me

If this is goodbye, then at least say something

Leave me with a word or two, why don't you?

Here we go, back to how things always used to be

Just leave me behind

I'm thinking nonstop, two people, one person

Unable to retrieve the words that have sunk with the setting sun

Farewell, darling, darling, darling

On the endlessly looping loop

"Keep on walking alone miserably, young lady"

Again today seems to be unchanging

I pray at the bottom of the sea

Goodbye, let's see each other again

I'll be here forever and ever

This one sided love is tough

Please text me later the instructions to forget you

Is there a chance that you will give me love again?

Hey, give me back the time I used loving you

You liar, you liar, you liar

But I still love you

Haven't you heard? It's breaking news

All the crying lies tied your best friend's noose

Haven't you heard? It's your own abuse

I had loved you

Even though I had loved you

I'll treat you like this, like the traitor you are
