the scene

**i wrote this song about a year and a half ago**

you finally broke your silence
to my unanswered calls
you gave me your reasons
you had all the reasons
you left me
with no choice at all..
so you wish me well
and i do the same to you
it's the heavy air
it stops me
from saying everything i want to..

.. and it's rubbing salt in the wound
if i would've asked you to stay ..

i would, if i could
but i can't
'cause you won't let me..
i would, if i could
but i can't
'cause you don't give a damn..

starting tomorrow i'm gonna put you
at the back of my mind
and you won't see me
at your periphery
watching you with somebody else
not me..

.. but i would've stolen the show
if i had just asked you to stay..

i would, if i could
but i can't
'cause you won't let me..
i would, if i could
but i can't
'cause you don't give a damn..
