The Love You Let Too Close

This isn’t just another sunset, finality hangs low in the air
The last page of a story all too short, you can see there was a battle here
Substance and a pain eternal, infidelity so infernal
A friend, lover, song and a brother, taken too early by his own hand
The poison lays on the table, note with a final goodbye within arms reach
If only we could see it in your eyers, so unstable
If only you could’ve shared the pain with me
If only

You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury the pain, instead it buried you
You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury it all

Now I just go through the motions
Watching it all just fade away
Now I just go through the motions
Taking it all day by day
Now I just go through the motions
Wishing that I could’ve noticed
Now I just go through the motions

March 26th, the day you left us
Broken by the love you let too close, I couldn’t see
The pain in your heart now it lives in your mothers eyes
And now you’re gone and it’s killing me

You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury the pain, instead it buried you
You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury it all

Now I just go through the motions
Watching it all just fade away
Now I just go through the motions
Taking it all day by day
Now I just go through the motions
