Picture of Brian.
Posted
I can't see the lights of this town
or hear the song on the radio
I can just feel the storm inside
and the rain that now starts to to pour

It seems I can recall a deep shock
then, an anger, although it was brief
And then, the weight of being a fool
it came crashing hard down on me

But how could she have been there
been there so close to him?
When not long ago, she'd cried to me
the awful thing that he did
And she had come running to me
to love her and heal all her scars
So, God, what the hell was she doing
tonight, lying there in his arms?

I would try to understand this
but it's all I can do to just breathe
I know it's not just all these tears
why I can hardly even see

But there's one image I can't shake
the way they both had looked at me
A cold mix of being ashamed
and even worse, was their sympathy

Oh, and now, where am I heading?
And do I even care to know?
Like this car, my whole goddamn life
it's now all out of my control
I hear, but cannot feel the crashing
or the water now filling my lungs
'cause I did all that I could ever do
and now, I just want to be done

Oh, after what she had done to me
I just needed to be done

Thank you so much Candice. I wasn't sure if anyone would like this one because it's a little different than I usually write. And yeah, I often struggle when I try to "paint a picture" in my lyrics, so thank you again for saying you got what I was trying to describe.
