The architecture of our life was grand A monument of promises you planned
But the foundation you laid was built on air A house of cards beyond all small repair
I thought the structure strong, the love secure But the betrayal was the only thing that's pure
And its destruction swift and absolute It severed every branch down to the root
It's a different kind of breaking, not a gentle bend It's the sudden cruel conclusion of a trusted friend
The agony of how outweighs the simple word A silent choking scream beneath a steel grey sky
My soul's a vacant lot where a home used to be Haunted by the ghost of the one who set me free
Into this wilderness of pain and disbelief
My vision's blurred by tears I cannot cry The kind of hurt that makes the spirit dry
You didn't fight me fair or even walk away You stayed inside the fortress just to play
A game of trust with me, the willing pawn Until you struck me down just before the dawn
Of what I thought was our forever shining bright
It's a different kind of breaking, not a gentle bend It's the sudden cruel conclusion of a trusted friend
The agony of how outweighs the simple word A silent choking scream beneath a steel grey sky
My soul's a vacant lot where a home used to be Haunted by the ghost of the one who set me free
Into this wilderness of pain and disbelief
The scars you leave won't be a simple line They'll be the map of where our stars malign
I cannot know the truth you kept inside The ocean where the trust has gone to hide
I search for closure, but it's nowhere near Just the heavy ringing silence, loud and clear
It's a different kind of breaking, not a gentle bend It's the sudden cruel conclusion of a trusted friend
The agony of how outweighs the simple word A silent choking scream beneath a steel grey sky
My soul's a vacant lot where a home used to be Haunted by the ghost of the one who set me free
Into this wilderness of pain and disbelief
Into this wilderness where I must walk alone Reaping the bitter seeds that you have sown
The pain of being betrayed, a constant heavy sting The saddest song my heart will ever sing
Ever sing of you
The song concludes with a single sustained note of a melancholy artistic guitar that gradually fades
