What Once Was Roses...

What happened to what we had? I don't understand
The last I checked, I was your lady, you were my man

What happened to us being faithful and true?

Where did this nonsense come from, out of the blue?

Why don't we connect so perfectly like we used to do?

Why does it seem, I'm always chasing after you?

What happened to honesty, loyalty, respect?

What happened that makes me feel you gonna move onto the next?

What happened to the love that nourished my soul?

I'm sitting here, laid back, watching it all unfold

I know, I KNOW, that something's not right

What happened to all the times you held me tight?

What happened to me being yours, and you mine forever?

Sometimes I wonder if our time together

Is drawing to a close, though I don't want it to happen, NEVER

But it seems like we can't seem to hold the pieces together

Why did Friday morning mark the end of the bliss?

I guess its cuz that's the day that my ignorance

Was shattered, pieces scattered, nothing left clouding my mind

And me seeing that this thing isn't all happiness and sunshine...

What happened to the future plans, we talked about achieving?

What happened to not being the type to be deceiving?

What happened to waiting... I'm sure you know what I mean

Cuz that just doesn't mesh with what I've seen...

Maybe I was wrong for looking, but I needed to know

What the strain has been lately, didn't know how to ask so...

Yeah, they say don't go looking if you don't wanna see

But I did it anyway, stupid stupid me

And what I found was enough to make my head light

Got my mind filled with questions, can't sleep well at night

Got me sitting here listening to music, weeping & crying

Got me over here feeling like my heart is slowly dying

Got me cussing and screaming, smoking and drinking

Knocking shit over, throwing things cuz I can't stop thinking

And all the while I'm wondering if you even care

Did you think about it before you took the actions that brought me here?

What happened to us? That question is my hope's blight...

"What was once roses, is now potpourri"
......... yeah, sounds about right...
