Can't Get A Grip

I can’t seem to get a grip on life now that you’re not with me,
It is really hard to cope after two years, and now all of a sudden you’re gone,
I am slowly dying inside you were the rays of sunshine,
That allowed me to see.

I can’t seem to get a grip on life because every time I get back on track,
You were there pulling me down, and you knew,
You were intentionally ruining my life.

But little did you know that in my past relationship as well,
I had no grip on my life,
And I can remember how much shock you were in,
When you seen what I did to my wrists
But what you did to me it was like you were holding the knife.

I can remember your promises that you would never do me wrong,
And I can remember the feeling of when we heard our song.
I can remember when I almost took my life because of how upset
You made me feel,
And I can remember when the cold blade raced across my wrist,
And I started to feel cold and lifeless as I lied on the floor and began to shiver,
But I have now seen through your lies, and I am tired of your games,
I have only one thing to say to you and that is cry me a river.

I hope that I never see you again and I never receive another call,
Because in time you will slip and no one will be there to catch you when you fall.
