The silence of the room bleeds and covers me.  You were gone and I was lost.  The wounds were wide open, but there was no where to put my hopes in.

You packed your bags and moved on, I’m heading to Arkansas, my feelings were strong.

 

I found you there, but I was boxed on the shelf, I realized you only thought about yourself.

You were off in Arkansas and you had moved on.

 

You had your pot and your porn, my presence was just a thorn.  For me, there never had even been made a place for scorn.

I’m stuck in Arkansas, feeling as if I’d never been born.

 

Your parents couldn’t have been kinder,  I couldn’t have been blinder. My replacement was already in place, there was no way to save face.  Dark was the sun, why did I even come?

I’m in Arkansas, stuck in the mud.

 

It felt so cold and I had nowhere to go.  You never cared from the start.  I was just pitch to clog a hole in your dead blackened heart.  I can never forgive you for what you’ve done, I can never forgive this foolish run.

 

I’m leaving Arkansas and I hope you choke on your bile,  you were just a waste of my time.  I’m leaving Arkansas,  there’s nothing here but cold ashes and dirty wine.  I’m leaving Arkansas,  you’ll get what you deserve…
