The White Room

I know this won’t be what you want to hear

But this is how it goes each and every year

You don’t say what you mean

You just hide it all

It was one more rise before the last great fall

I guess this is the way it’s meant to be

I tried and tried and you just walked through me

I don’t think I’ve ever been so wrong

My only mistake was staying here this long

I’m sorry

But this doesn’t change things

You were never there and it was never enough

It was never enough and I’m done

I’ll wave just one more time but that’s all you get

That’s all you get

Now I’m gone

There is one last thing now just before I go

You needed time to breathe

But that just didn’t show

Now I will walk away

I will make this right

I will leave no trace before the morning light.
