My Relationship's Last Breath

by

Eddie Tacub

Sent of to war against my own will
Now I'm being dumped, heart beat-less, my body at a still

So many emotions when you're apart
You say one day that you love me
The next day you go and break my heart

My heart has holes in it, my body is feeling drained
The pain I feel made the white clouds rain

Eight long months in the battle field
Along with my weapon, our love I would've carried
It took me a lot of courage
To ask your dad permission to get married

Someone who's dieing inside just like you
To be with the one they love
To spend forever as one instead apart as two

I long for his day, my soul cries for us to be as one
To sit on our front porch under the same sun

To end our relationship over something I have no control
You not only ripped my heart out my chest
But you damaged and scarred my body and soul

I hope that you are happy with your choice or decisions
While I'm dodging bullets or avoiding convoy collisions

If you can't wait for someone you love so deeply
I guess you get rid of them first, leave them in the corner weeping

I guess you rather be with someone
You could see almost every single day
Then be with someone who can take care of you
Love you and hold you in each and every way
Looks like all for what we worked for
You'd rather go and throw it all away

Seeing or picturing you being with someone else
Only makes me sick and makes my eyes melt
I still remember the time we first broke up
I remember your reaction and how you felt

You wanted to work things out and give us another chance
Do whatever it takes to make it last
Now I'm being crucified for being a soldier
We have no future, all we have is a past

I wish things could have been different
Wish I could type a request to God and hit send
I wish you knew how much to me you really meant
But all this has all come to a fucking end
I guess we'll be the opposite of the song lover's and friends
