lyrics
It's never fair when it comes straight out of the blue.
Early warnings and red flags aside,
You're left reeling from the surprise.
If life's a stage then someone has stolen your cue.
Left speechless and out of the story arc.
You thought you had the leading part.
But you do.
Just not in this tale.
There's a role for you.
It's not clear but it's out there.
The slow release.
Your heart is caught in the crossfire
Of common sense and a deep desire
That's waining by the day.
Don't linger, please.
Your love is just like a cigarette.
When the embers cool and you reach the end,
Stub it out and walk away.
Clear the air
Of the smokey haze.
Maybe soon you can chalk it down to bad luck.
Bad choices of no real importance.
Just catalysts of mild annoyance.
God willing you will see some light in the darkness.
But even if he does exist,
He has no hand in this.
It's not his decision.
It's yours for the making.
It's not his tender heart
That's done all the breaking.
The slow release.
Your heart is caught in the crossfire
Of common sense and a deep desire
That's waining by the day.
Don't linger, please.
Your love is just like a cigarette.
When the embers cool and you reach the end,
Stub it out and walk away.
Clear the air
Of the smokey haze.
