the only thing worse than a broken heart
is a terminal illness
he chose to look for more options
now i have to be alone
how does one know if you are 'meant to be'
he says he knows we aren't
i didn't want my life to be a country album
but it seems the men i choose
are not meant to stay
but oh they love me
so they say
and then they walk away
...
i've never seen a man shed so many tears
for something he's giving up
and no words can make me understand his choice
and no anger will come to quench the sorrows thirst
just an ache inside every hollow
a hurt greater than i can articulate
every step i take alone
that i could have shared in love
filled with loss
and every silence you used to fill
and empty pillows missing you
your face in my last memory
is long with agony
your small almond eyes large and moist
as you look down on the pain you caused
and to writhe and moan
seems the only thing i'm fit to do
curled up and missing you
my greatest love
the happiest chapter
turned to the greatest pain
