Every Day

Uhm, just to clarify, I really don't miss anyone. I was thinking about tattoos in gym today and then the lyrics started out about Hayden, but since I need to get over that, I turned it into a breakup song.

I got a new tattoo last Saturday
Before you left, it says your name
I loved it, now I want it to fade
Like my spirit when you walked away from me
You could have looked behind you
And seen my eyes see through you
I know you never thought you'd have to
Be the one to leave me without you

I look at the rain pouring down my face
Staring into the mirror of the lake
Water rippling as the tears fall mixed with the hate
But I miss you every day

Sometimes I look through old photos of
Us and what we considered love
But now I can see we're wearing thin
Strings holding together like it's a sin
And whenever I smoke a cigarette
I see your face and want to forget
In the dark I see your silhouette
So as I lay here on the bed where we slept


I look at the rain pouring down my face
Staring into the mirror of the lake
Water rippling as the tears fall mixed with the hate
But I miss you every day

I'm staring at the water, watching it turn black
Wondering how much it costs to turn time back
How much must I sacrifice to take the hands
And move them counter just to have another chance?
