there was nothing in sight
running away from the carnage
the memories left abandoned
all gone in a blink of the eye;
sometimes beginnings are’nt so simple
sometimes goodbye’s the only way
i did not realize everything was falling apart, until
everyone i knew was ready to turn and run away;
i wish i could say
that i’ve got no regrets.
looking for the right words to say,
i’m not quite sure how to put my words,
as a solitary tear drop slid down my cheek,
i packed my bags and took a train towards
the sunset where a new life awaits and
tomorrow i’llĀ forget about my grief today;
