As I looked into your eyes, I saw my future go up in flames.

When you turned and looked my way, I thought that I was gonna marry you someday.

Now someday is over- it’s come and gone away.

The ring you placed on my finger, felt heavy when I saw that you had kissed her.

Her lips touched every precipice that was once mine.

She made you turn your head on a dime, smoothed talked you into taking your time.

Now I’m in the bathroom trying not to cry as you tell her that I’m the reason why you are alone and burned.

How our future went up in flames, because we argued too many times before today.

It was almost like you never proposed in the first place and here I am trying to save face.

Now what can I do with this ring that you gave me, should I throw it away or keep it?

Because I want to leave it on the table and take another shot. So that I can drown all the memories of all the many times you kissed me.

Here in this bar where you met me. But even our friends know that we are faking being happy, out of necessity.

There goes my hopes and my sorrows, she took you away by promising more tomorrows.

No more love bombs and late night calls, to tell me that you missed me before I even called.

I’m on my way home now with no ring in sight.

Now I’m listening to the radio to our toxic lullaby, while she’s holding your heart and I’ve left saying goodbye.
