enDear - Russian Dolls

I open my eyes to the morning sun and an empty room
Let the dawn warm my eyes to the choices made and lack of you
Tapping my foot to tempo of my nervous thoughts
Melody manifests to harmonize with moving on

Coughing out the smoke from a fire I spent years in
Picking shards of glass out that were trapped beneath my skin
As the future comes to focus, I can feel the regrets fade
Watching as the chains fall in the face of progress made

Once a blessing
Now a burden
I feel the weight finally lift
Once a fire
Now just embers
As the marigold glow fades

Back and forth we danced
Caught up in a trance
Back and forth we danced
Stepping on each others toes
Fight, forgive, repeat,
We do this every week
fight forgive repeat
Tear apart and then rebuild

Back and forth we danced
Stepping on each others toes
Fight, forgive, repeat,
Tear apart and then rebuild

The house we built in ashes, there's nothing left to save
The embers we ate burned our tongues there's nothing left to say
But something feels different
Forgiveness didn't take back what was said (what was said)
But something feels different
You can't take back what was said

Hollow promises
Contain a serpent's kiss
Hollow promises
Like Russian dolls of I've seen before

I'd rather say good bye
