Weekends never used to be long enough
Now they stretch away into infinity
Time with you was never long enough
Now the loneliness never seems to end

I built my life around being with you
I feel like I was just a piece of yours
And now you’re out getting drunk and over me
And I’m home with a cat and no plans.

I always thought that I was strong enough
To live and do things by myself
But without you, I feel invisible:
Friday night with a cat and no plans

I know you weren’t right for me
I know I’ll find the one who is
But for now, the tears fill the silence
Almost 30 with a cat and no plans

The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears.

I know you are crushed,but even  with a cat and no plans you seem to have the right attitude.

Good piece, my friend and an even better attitude ... always, always, sunlight after the night.  

Understand and empathize.
