Ashes In The Wind

I never in a million years
Thought you were capable of hurting me
With such an intensity that I myself
Questioned how strong I ever was
How strong I was to push you away
Tell myself I didn’t need you,
Didn’t love you
I should’ve known I was lying when I
Kept checking up on you,
Kept wondering where you were,
Kept guessing who you were with
And now you’re done chasing me
You let the butterfly off it’s string
But this butterfly misses it’s tight string
Choking it with a passionate embrace
Now I’m crying a river for you
This time I won’t bother to float
It hurts to breathe when I know you’re gone
Before you’d always come back
But now I’ll never see you again, never
I guess I’ll have to let you go, but in the end
I’ll let go of myself
Because I love you and not any of those
Cliché loves with happily ever after
I’d die without you and I can already feel myself
Disintegrating in my own hands
The wind will carry away my ashes
Flowing through the breeze
Then maybe one day they’ll brush against you
And maybe you’ll think of me

Maybe you’ll think of me
