Tire Tracks and Broken Hearts

I saw you glance one last time in the rear view mirror as you sped on out the drive
Choking on the dust you left behind, just trying to survive

The wind brushed the one last tear I let fall down my face
But it couldn't blow away the pain you left in your place

These tire tracks you left on my heart started to ache
I thought I was the only one you could never forsake

The piece of my heart I had given to you
You returned to me all battered and bruised

I turned and walked back into a house that was no longer a home
I've never once had memories make me feel so alone

I walked past the photo of us in the hall
As I past it, I knocked it down and let it fall

Hating you would make this easier to do
But that emotion won't come when I need it to

Crawling in a bed that's now just for me
Better days and good times I just don't see

There's two cups, two plates, two chairs to use
Doubles of everything, except me and you

I slowly drift to sleep, to a place where things aren't so bad
A place where I dont feel I lost all I ever had

But when I wake up, the truth tears me apart
The reality is I still have a broken heart
