It’s not the same

It’s not the same

As when I’m standing on the edge

I’m safe

But I’m not free

If I jump

I could be forgiven

I’m not safe

But I am free

Tears don’t stop the rainfall

But water is water all the same

Emptiness is never really empty

As long as you can give it a name

I could never sing when people were watching

The notes came out but the words were all wrong

It seems as long as I am telling a story

I might as well turn it into a song

Love is not mysterious

It’s easy enough to comprehend

Pain is the broken one

It comes long before the end

And I know to him I am a traitor

I broke his trust and our very last string

You can hold on as long as you want to

You can dangle from the edge or you can swing

Maybe I’m wrong

Maybe I’m right

And maybe I’ve made

The worst mistake

Of my life

And maybe love

Is not mysterious

Maybe it’s clear enough

For all to understand

And maybe my pain

Has nothing to do with us

And maybe it’s just because

You were my man
