Letting the days go by
Don't touch me she screamed
Talking heads played the back drop to the scene
This ain't my beautiful home
Just leave, she said tapping fingernails on the top of the melamine table
We bought it from a charity store, when we were in love
It looks cheap surrounded by the room now
She wouldn't let it go
The remnants of broken plate crunched beneath my foot
Letting the days go by
We need to talk about this, my first words for a while
What is there to say? she shot back
Her mind set on rapid fire assault
Letting the days go by
Do you still love me?
Do you know what love is? she slammed back
What happened to us?
She was crying and I joined her
What happened to us?
A brittle scene full of broken dreams
When did we start?
Letting the days go by
