Thread of Your Smile

 

Slowly slips away the afternoon

I'm watching the sky fade

Into a dulling shade of gray

Night is taking over

 

I look outside my window

As I'm searching through my mind

I don't know why I do this

But I know what I will find

 

It will be you

You are inside my head

It will be you

And I can not pretend

I can't escape

While I'm hanging on the thread of your smile

 

When you turn and look my way

It's the words you don't even have to say

 

Cuz'

 

You read me like a book when you take the time to look

At the pages torn with ages marked with yellowed years of false pretenses

And a life I never choose to live

 

You got away

You slipped away

You're away

 

And I'm here

 

Asking questions when I already know the riddled answers I will find

 

It will be you

Saying what you've always said

It will be you

You're so good at playing pretend

While I'm hanging on the thread of your smile

 

Like a marionette

Like a noose 'round my neck

And I've been here for quite awhile

Just hanging by the thread of your smile
