The Face that Sucked my Soul Dry

Fading from view
Like subtracting one and one from two
You used to be my muse
Until you started fading into the blue

Forty is coming up awful fast
And now you’re just another part of my awful past
I’ve come to terms that I have no place in your world
I just wish that you didn’t do it like a silent ninja bitch

Our last correspondence was a parting gift
Purple Turquoise and amethyst
My third eye never saw the void approaching
Never thought that I was encroaching
On your new life model
Or that I was becoming obsolete

I guess what hurts is you did me like I do me
Or at least how I used to be
People never believe in change
Give them a history and they’ll think it’s tomorrow’s front page
Even when you’re fighting to start a new
They’ll drag you down
And say NO! THIS IS HOW YOU DO!

In your absence I have grown
Into a man with an armored backbone
Into a man with a shielded heart
Because enemies are all around
You should know that
It turned out you’re the first one that I found while lost
And one day
You’ll regret playing me in their game
Because one thing about time babe, is that everything will change
