lyrics

I cannot seem to find it
Where is my happiness?
Packed up in boxes when you left
Now I'm so lost without you
Here in the wilderness
Chasing the memory of your kiss

I tried my best to love you
But I don't have any left
I'm sitting here in loneliness
While you've had other lovers
Such shallow love affairs
Like they could replace what we shared

How could you be so careless
With my still beating heart?
Goddamn this awkward tension
Goddammit from the start
This is no great awakening
There is no more romance
We killed it dead with out last dance

Now I've been getting better
Something new everyday
I can be happy but for now
Sad songs are for the taking
Listening cause here's one now
It's all I've got after these years.
