LYRIC FOR SALE

By zuzawrites

Once I met a man.
He was charming,
He was caring,
He made me his whole sky.
Everyone was jealous, everyone asked me,
“Where did you find a man like that?”
Everyone smiled and rolled their eyes at us.
But lately the man I met keeps fading,
And I keep telling myself there’s nothing we can’t work out.
And I keep searching, wondering what I’m doing wrong.
And I keep fighting with all the baggage that I’ve got,
But nothing ever changes.

I miss the man I’d fallen for,
I miss the times when I was adored.
I try to fix the walls of blocks we made,
But they keep falling back to the floor.
You know I can’t do it on my own.
I miss everything we made,
I miss the man you were.

And all my friends tell me to give up this love,
But I try to bring back to life the one I’d fallen for.
I hate the way you blame everything on me,
But I hate even more the way I won’t blame you for this.
And I keep telling myself there’s nothing we can’t work out.
And I keep searching, wondering what I’m doing wrong.
And I keep fighting with all the baggage that I’ve got,
But nothing ever changes.

I miss the man I’d fallen for,
I miss the times when I was adored.
I try to fix the walls of blocks we made,
But they keep falling back to the floor.
You know I can’t do it on my own.
I miss everything we made,
I miss the man you were.

I hate the man you’ve become.
I hate the dryness on your tongue when you say my name.
I hate the one who won’t share with me his last name.
Oh, what a mess we made - I miss the man you were.
I hate the man that I can’t hate.
I hate that I can’t forget the one you were.
I hate that I’m not sure if you want me to stay.
Oh, what a mess you made - I miss the one you slayed.

I miss the man I’d fallen for,
I miss the times when I was adored.
I try to fix the walls of blocks we made,
But they keep falling back to the floor.
You know I can’t do it on my own.
I miss everything we made,
I miss the man you were
