The Best
I place your head upon my breast.
Then I tell you what is best.
'My loyalty grows very strong,
But yours, it seems, is a broken bond.
You'll never know how I hurt
Until my heart is left,
Bleeding in the dirt.
You are perfect in every way.
But not perfect for me,
Though I hate to say.
"It's you I love!
It's you I won't live without!"
I can't get a word in as you start to shout.
You're not open minded,
You'll never see,
That your life will be better without me.
What I want and what I need.
Completely different, now I see.
I want you. Your voice. Your touch.
But loyalty I need more.
It means so much.
You are loyal, don't get me wrong.
But the way you sing loyalty..
Such a different song.
All my jealousy...
All the hurt hidden inside.
I need things that you can't provide.
Know I love you,
and I want the best.
But now we're over.
My mind is set.'
So I walk away and never look back.
I did what had to be done.
Accept it as that.
