Solace- Spearmint

To talk to
someone who has been through
what I am going through
to realise that I'm not alone
or strange

we both knew
that it would end at some point
it just so happens that it's now
to realise that I am alone
seems strange

I feel hollow
hollow and bruised inside
oh why is this so hard?
how come it hurts so much
in my stomach?

in this life
you don't fall in love very often
and so to have to say goodbye
seems stupid and sad
maybe one day
I will wake up
and you won't be the first thing
that I think about

I need solace
solace from music and friends
that say if I'm going to get over you
it means forgetting you
which I don't want to do
and they say
time will sweep these marks away
but I say
this past will stay preserved
frozen intact
and perfect
forever

suddenly, the songs that meant nothing to me
seem to have been written for me
it's like a soundtrack to my life
songs about falling in love
about being in love
about saying goodbye

songs about falling in love
about being in love
about saying goodbye

I knew that
I was for it right from the start
right from the first day we met
I knew I was going to get hurt
it just so happens that it's now
