my heart aches
but not for you
(never for you)
i feel this is all i can take
let's return to our before

before
she came in
and you walked out
before
i kept track
and you lost count
before
the heeding was warned
and continually ignored
before
the cliff became too clear
and the drop much too easy

my heart aches
but not for you
(never for you)
i feel this is all i can take
watch as my heart breaks

watch
karma at your door
and you under sheets
watch
glass across the floor
and you, so cold
watch
all evidence relinquished
and you back to bad habits
watch
murder be charged
and you blamed for nothing

my heart aches
but not for you
(never for you)
i feel this is all i can take
my emotions are raw honesty
take them lovingly and brutally

she holds the gun in hand
watching you fall to the floor
don't hold on, she begs
smile on her face and half out the door
this was all she could take
before she watched you rake her raw
her heart aches
but not for you
(never for you.)
