Say the words
Say the words
Say the words
Say the words...
I don't seem able
To forget you
Forget you
Don't seem to be able to say,
"Thanks" without a smile..
It's so
It's real hard
I've been trying
To pretend
That you aren't here
Watching my face
But I can feel
Your eyes...
I wish I could say the words,
To
Tell you what I mean,
But the words just won't form in my mouth
I don't understand
Am I stuck between the pages?
Don't you see the scars
Forming
Up and round my arms,
I don't get it
I know what I want to say
And everytime I try
I-I-I can't
Say what I mean.
"Because darling..."
Walking in your footprints...
Ain't my game.
I've been thinking of you
Lying alone,
Blank spaces in my head;
I can see your smiling face
I can hear your laugh
And it's driving me
Crazy
I still can't comprehend
What you meant then
Just one more chance,
To say...
"Darling, it's.."
Just five more minutes
To say
What I want
To tell you
All the reasons why
I hate...
"Because, darling,
I've seen the empty seats,
The open backpacks on the street."
Repeating these words in my head,
Whirling them round
Exchanging the vowels,
Say the words
Say the words...
"Darling,
I-I'm afraid
You are
F*****g dead
To me."
And then I'll say
"Thanks."
With a smirk.
And you'll fall.

Author notes
Do you ever feel like you have something to say? And then you just sit there and repeat the phrase in your head, moving words around and working out what they would say..? well... I do, he he, I wrote this while listening to "Diary of Jane" by Breaking Benjamin.
