that was a love song

I saw you in the corridor
and I knew my world had come to an end
It seemed trivial
My love was vital
And so were your lies

I still miss you
Still writing love songs
While everyone’s laughing
I see nothing
But your smile
When you look at him

All alone in your memory
Remembering the first time
Remembering the last
Time and time again
Never the same
Without your touch

I honor the claim
I respect the game
To conquer your heart was never the plan
I lie
But what can I say
When I first saw you
That was a love song
Again and again
Running through my brain

Days go by
People die
At the glimpse of your touch
I cry
Better men have said it
So I scream and harm instead

All alone in your memory
Remembering the first time
Remembering the last
Time and time again
Never the same
Without your touch
