CLEAR DELUSION

Rain washed away
My love can’t stay
My heart it died
When your plane it flied 
Away
From the promises we made
Why’d you ever say
I love you?

Cold hands, cold heart
Why’d we ever start?
I thought I knew
You knew me and I knew you
Fairytales with broken dreams
A wishing well over a rushing stream
Happy endings are fragile things
Crying alone doesn’t always mean
I love you

Don’t you praise me
With some hazy absolution 
Abstinence ain’t
Nothing but a messy conclusion
Don’t you praise me
With your convenient conclusions
Your absence ain’t
A gift but it’s a contusion 

Clear delusion
Clear delusion
