& Try To Break Free

      - & Try To Break Free - 
 

Don't remember where our head was,
   when Chance told us, to her it was a game.
The more serious she looked to be,
   the farther away she became.
We had no idea, what this would cost,
   as we watched all the reruns flash before our eyes.
When we found out how little she thought,
   so little our worth, all our hopes denied.

As you read this now our friend -
We wish you’d done more than bail -
Try to smile if you ever think of “us” -
And how your fears created this fail. 

We Blame The Moon.
And Shooting Stars.
Nicholas Sparks.
And The Past’s Scars.
These Are The Last Words.
We'll Give To This Mess.
And Then We’ll Try To Break Free.

If our heart wasn’t so very weak,
   it might have handled this break.
But all the memories we have of you,
   resurrected its unending ache.
We should have known better,
   and we knew we were foolish to try.
Her not so gentle reminder of our place,
   Our whole life will testify.

Moving on is not such a simple thing -
It always leaves behind new scars -
Time heals, but doesn’t really ease the pain -
not in a heart such as ours.

We Blame The Moon.
And Shooting Stars.
Nicholas Sparks.
And The Past’s Scars.
These Are The Last Words
We'll Give To This Mess.
And Then We’ll Try To Break Free.
