It Wasn't

Folder: 
Remnants

There's a secret that I'll never know
Gazing deep into obscurity
There are mem'ries that won't let me go
Causing a false sense of security
And I maybe, I should still hold out for hope
That I can find, in this, some inner peace
Even though, my dear, you never show
Me any more than your will to leave


So, I stand here as the daylight fades
Wond'ring why it meant so much to me


It wasn't worth what you said to me
It wasn't what I thought it would mean
It wasn't worth all your treachery
It wasn't what it turned out to be


I followed the sunset to the horizon
Where you stood in the center of the glow
I walked the razor edge of your knife and
Got caught up in the undertow


So, I stand here, as the daylight fades
Wond'ring why I let you get to me


It wasn't worth what you said to me
It wasn't what I thought it would mean
It wasn't worth all your treachery
It wasn't what it turned out to be
It wasn't worth all the memories
It wasn't what I thought I'd need


So, I stand here as the daylight fades
Letting go of all our memories
So, I stand here, as the daylight fades
Forgetting all our everything


It wasn't worth what you said to me
It wasn't what I thought it would mean
It wasn't worth all your treachery
It wasn't what it turned out to be


So, I stand here (It wasn't worth a thing)
As the daylight fades(It wasn't meant to be)
Releasing (all our memories)
Forgetting (all our everything)


It wasn't worth it in the end
Is this the way it all began
It wasn't worth the things you said
It wasn't what it should have meant
It wasn't worth the pain that led
From what it never should've been


It wasn't worth what you said to me
It wasn't what I thought it would mean
It wasn't worth all your treachery
It wasn't what it turned out to be


There's a secret that I'll never know
Fading out as the light recedes
