I really hope you're happy,
And really that's no lie,
But last night when I saw you I just
Couldn't see the sparkle
In your eyes.
I couldn't hear your laugh.
I couldn't see that smile. Because I just couldn't focus
Past your gla** of wine.
The one that you deemed garbage, but
The best they've got
In this sh**hole dive.
The whole town sunk beneath you,
Then swallowed me inside. Now you walk the walk,
Talk the talk,
Dress the part,
In someone else's shoes, and words,
And clothes they dress you up in,
And it breaks my heart.
The you I knew is gone. The hills I once called home
Are dead with silence.
They just don't sing
The way they used to.
The golden glow is gone.
The magic left with you. I thought I caught a glimpse of you.
A few times today
In window gla**, a bus that pa**ed,
The mirror with which I'm standing
Face to face.
But somehow you were lost
Beneath a veil of age. Now you walk the walk,
Talk the talk,
Dress the part,
In someone else's shoes, and words,
And clothes they dress you up in,
And it breaks my heart.
The you I knew is gone.
