Lights, Camera, Stop

Was this part of the plan?
Or just another scene?
That flew into reality
right off the silver screen?

I can’t believe it’s really true,
Isn’t this “make believe”?
The story that ends in tragedy,
That makes us want to leave?

But no, it’s right, this life I chose.
It’s mine for my mistakes.
And one day I’ll walk out of here.
And then I’ll be awake.

And in the final scene,
When he walks away,
He’ll never turn around,
He promised he wouldn’t stay.

The tears swell big inside your eyes,
As truth hits like a slap.
The world is spinning, a hundred miles,
I’m sure that I’ll adapt.

So I’ll throw this movie stub away,
And I’ll walk back home alone,
Even though this movie
I could have written on my own.

Because I’ve lived it once,
1000 times in my mind.
Still I think we have that connection.
We’ll always have that bind.


So I’ll cry myself to sleep,
And dream we didn’t part.
For this past that never occurred
Remains forever in my heart.
