Tonight I Can Write

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how you broke my heart
How I suppose I wasn't enough for you

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how she's more important to you
How she leaves you happy like I cannot

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how you told me you loved me
How much you didn't mean it

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how she's always there
How she always answers your phone

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how many pieces my heart is in
How you left the shards lying in the sink

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how many tears I cried when I found out
How I found out

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of the darkness without the light
How there's comfort in an unknown lie

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of how nature seems to die
How I'm jealous of that death

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of death, and the unuttered sighs
How my tongue throbs from all the things I never said

Tonight I can write the saddest lines
I can write of the stupidity in believing you
How even though you don't love me, I still love you

I whisper to no one, "I still love you"
