Smithereens

(Cebuliak)

 

To think that all this time

You didn’t know

Oh, it really only goes to show

That life is blind

And so unkind

To those that try to love you so

 

This is what I said

When I saw you’d led

Me into deeper water

Now when your eyes I see

It’s plain to me

You never held the key

 

But this ghost town heart

Set you apart

From what I would’ve liked

To believe in

So now you can’t decide

Who’s right and what’s wrong

But can I say I feel

Like I’ve been strung along?

 

And even though you were right there

It was a situation between Sun & Moon

Through miles and miles and miles

Of outer space

The shadows in your face

With you, draft dodging my heart

Not seeing you’d torn me apart

 

So blow me to

Smithereens

I’d rather have the truth

With a sky of blue

And fields of greens

 

And whites, those lights

Might give me just one question:

Did you ever, really never

Know?”

 

So blow me to

Smithereens

I’d rather have the truth

With a sky of blue
