X-RAY

Pain between your shoulders
Annoying little pain that never heals
A spot upon an x-ray
Then that’s all there is

Too late for sorry
She’s gone. She’s left. She’s writing her new book
She no longer needs you
That’s all it took

Faith has let you down and now you’re colder
Fear dissolved the words you should have told her
Your body burns and breaks and now you’re older

Now no big finish
No lights. No noise. No ticker tape parade
I hate to disappoint you
But that’s all there is
I hope you don’t feel cheated
But that’s all there is
Your body burns and breaks and now you’re colder
Your body burns and breaks
