The Lessons In The Blessing

We split the dial to far this time
And the cracks delineate the crime
That we both made
As we sat in the shade
Of what we’re meant to be
And they’re dragging out of me
Telling me who I am
And that I must follow this plan
If I am to be whole
Sacrifice my heart and soul
On the altar of their god
But the one they use the rod
To announce
And I denounce
All of their shattered shards of glass
And me measuring up to who I was in the past
Because I really thought that this would last
And I cannot blame you
So I do not name you
Or what you’re doing with her
In the grass bed of what we were
And I look at my hands
As all the sands
Pour through onto the beach
Is the lesson that you came to teach
That I will be alright on my own
If I hadn’t lost you I wouldn’t have known
