Case Closed

I watch him categorise 
Click the lock on the lies
Like I’m a briefcase he takes to work
I know he says it coz he knows it hurts
And I’m feeling like a headcase on the floor
Looking at the space where he closed the door
And I want to laugh and I want to cry
And I hear him wish that I would die
It’s screamed in my face, it’s pounded on the desk
It’s something I want to put to rest
So I dive into spirituality and hope my soul will be saved
He crashed into my dreams and my will caved
As he found a weak spot and the music played
And I feel so guilty coz I knew you had a girl
I saw it in her eyes when she looked up at the world
That shone out from you when you looked into her
And I’m dizzy so I lie on the floor
How did it get to this
He doesn’t even know I exist
And I try to move on and leave you behind
But you have a key to the diary of my mind
And you ease yourself in through a crack in the glass when I’m looking away
You look at me realise and ask if you can say
And you’re taking everything away from me
I used to be wild, I used to be free
Now I’m just a woman brooding over a man
Knowing the hold that I never can
Seem to break and he wishes his life away
But I cherish every moment and I wish it would stay
Instead of flowing like water through the gaps in the dam
How did I become what I am
A carbon copy of what’s gone before
Just a printed press of nothing more
Than the wilful abandon of sacrifice
You know the people that think they are nice
Because they’ve given it all up
For the sake of love
But they’re tired and they’re drained
Like clouds after it’s rained
And the rivers are full
How do I resist this unearthly pull
Into what you let me see
I just didn’t think it would capture me
