Out 5.26.23

Every memory
You, me and your family
Shattered like glass
All of the reasons
we split into pieces
Every ghost of the past
is keeping me up at night
I need the light on
To hold my darkest thoughts at bay
cause I can still feel you breathing
See you leaving
I’m just nose above the waves

Does the pain fade out?
Does it linger?
How does a month turn into ten years?
Does the war rage on?
Do the memories just up and disappear?
Oh I’m hopeless and I’m going under fast
How long, how long, how long does a Broken Heart Last?

Constant anxiety
Always reminding me
how you used to kiss my neck
Life was so easy then
Now I’m just struggling cause I’ve got nothing left
And it’s keeping me up at night
I need the light on
To hold my darkest thoughts at bay
cause I can still feel you, breathing
See you leaving
I’m just nose above the waves

Does the pain fade out?
Does it linger?
How does a month turn into ten years?
Does the war rage on?
Do the memories just up and, just up and, just up and disappear?

Disappear
From the moment we met
I was better than best
I was higher than high
now the seconds crawl by
and the darkness creeps in 
while I’m asking myself all the same damn things

Does the pain fade out? 
Or does it linger?
Does a month turn into ten years?
Does the war rage on?
Do the memories just up and disappear?
Oh I’m hopeless and I’m going under fast
Tell me how long, how long, how long does a broken heart last?
Does a broken heart last?
Does a broken heart last?
