.Baggage.

The cards are all laid on the table
Your baggage is still by the door
My baggage is all in my head, in my heart
And i know you can't take anymore.
And you've already said you forgive me
And that I could never let you down
And I don't want to say that I'm worthless
But life has no purpose if you're not around
No one makes a sound
The ceiling fan spins
And I know that I'll never feel heartbreak again
If you leave
Because this heartbreak will never end
It'll stay on repeat like the sweetest of sins
You'll be the melody, harmony, drumbeat and strings
For all that we've lost, all the we could be
And i can't help but think
Whats the matter with me
And i just want to scream
Whats the matter with me

C'mere love
Lets go wander down memory lane
Hold my hand, love
We won't get to do it again
Isn't it so insane
How things change
From one way to another
First we're loving, then fussing, then hating each other
We were made for each other
Weren't we?
You don't know how that look in your eyes, it hurts me
Cuts like knives, or worse, see
Cus i thought that we might really be
Something more than the last was
Has our last chance passed us

I'm rambling sweetheart, I know
Buying time, cus I really don't want you to go
I just want you to know
That I want it to work
You tell me the truth about myself
And it hurts
Cus its hard
To look at myself in the mirror
Now that your love has made my vision clearer
And I'll never see it this clearly again
If you go
I'll never let anyone in
You should know
That my hearts in those bags my the door
So in leaving, you're taking it with you.

All I'm really trying to say is I'll miss it.
I'll miss you.
