So you come to me
with "baby I'm sorry"
Words that you said
dance around in my head
"why can't you forgive?"
In my mind these words live
echo where they reside
Pain replaces compassion
in a morbid fashion
know I'm dead inside


Not meant for another
couldn't even if I tried
Frail am I
wrong cannot I deny
that dreams often seem real
The way that we feel
can color our sky
distant and blue
as thoughts of you
succumb, to empty and numb


If I can't forgive
then I won't be forgiven
Prodigal son
dances as one
around the issues
of us
Must ,
I beg to differ?


For there is nothing left of me to take
Please make no mistake
For I once believed in fairytale dreams
saw looks upon a face
that I wanted Gods grace
to place
upon a child of mine
if he were to be so kind
And now I know
wishing don't make it so
And that I...was only dreaming
