Foundation
I felt the shift in the pavement
A crack in the foundation
The ground we were standing on
Crumbling all around me
And you were nowhere to be found
No, you took off running
The second things got hard
Don’t you remember everything you promised me
Remember how we talked about
How promises were sacred things
And how you’d like to keep them
Because they weren’t kept for you
But what did you in fact do?
Broke every last one
Why promise anything at all?
If your intentions were to run
What have you done?
Made this mess of me
And I’m supposed to stay silenced in my pain?
Watch you just get away with everything
What’s the consequence of losing me?
Throwing me away
I never had a say
You shut me up
Before I even had the chance to speak
Whys it always me?
Why do you always leave?
My heart is done
I wanted you to be the one
Heart out of order
I’ve come undone
