OVERDUE GOODBYES
This house of cards has come crashing down
whatever we were looking for was never found
all the walls are now rotted
whatever untied is back to knotted
Truth is we no longer can be bothered
This house never got a single layer of paint
foundations built right from the start were only faint
your forever didn’t last long
your grip wasn’t very strong
let’s face it, you’ve been long gone
So go to hell, this is a farewell
all the promises have been shattered
overdue goodbyes, no how’s no why’s
whatever there was never really mattered
get out of here, nothing was sincere
the road has led to a junction
I take left, you take right
it was never meant to function
This house of cards has sunk into gloom
no play, no laughter, silence fills up every room
we were just co-existing
neither of us really listening
the echoes that foresaw coming doom
