And Just like that, Life as you Knew it Ended

And just like that, life as you knew it ended

You were coughing at the sink

When the weight of everything took your feet

I was waiting to leave

When one more pebble brought me to my knees

At the bottom there is doubt

More anger in the silence than the shouts

I know I wasn't here for most of our good years

I'm with you now

You pulled me from the corner

Swaying with the music at our feet

I held you a thousand mornings

Til the diamonds fell away from our rings

At the bottom there is doubt

More anger in the silence than the shouts

I know I wasn't here for most of our good years

I'm with you now

We've been awful. Sigh.
