I guess the day is finally here, the biggest day of our relationship,/ I see you walking with that hypnotizing sway in your hips,/ Looking like a goddess as the sun shines through your hair,/ Unbelievable my girl is, no other woman compares,/ You are a diamond in the rough, a needle in a haystack,/ One in a million, don't you forget that,/ I could watch you all day, and you'll still take my breath away,/ But today I watch you walk away with nothing left for us to say,/ I’m memorizing the way the light hits your face,/ Trying to find a reason to keep us in this space./ But the silence between us is too loud to ignore,/ And I can't keep on knocking on a vaulted door./ We been through a lot together, and I thank you for the time,/ But it's time to let you go, because you just cannot be mine,/ I could give you what you want, if you had told me what that was,/ But your actions say one thing, and your words scream something else,/ It isn't fair to either of us to try and fight for what we crave,/ I adapted to what you said, you chose to stay the same/ I've always kept it a buck with you, honest with what I want,/ But you never offered change, For what I paid in full up front,/ I remember the nights we’d talk until the stars turned into day./ Before the struggles started piling and felt you start to stray./ I built a pedestal for you, I kept it polished, made you shine,/ While you were looking for an exit with a flicker in your eye./ Is it ego? Is it fear? Or just a lack of soul?/ Whatever it is, it’s left an unfillable hole./ I’m looking at a masterpiece that’s missing all the heart,/ It’s a tragedy to watch a work of art just fall apart./ In this battle your the victim in a war you started first,/ Quenching your own ego while you watch me die of thirst./ I’m not the enemy for finally seeing through the sunlit haze,/ I’m just the one who’s tired of walking through an impossible maze./ Built a mountain of memories, now I’m alone at the peak,/ The air is getting thin and the foundation is getting weak./ I tried to read the manual, but you've rewritten every page,/ Now I’m just a spectator watching you exit the stage./ It isn't fair to either of us to try and fight for what we crave,/ I adapted to what you said, you chose to stay the same./ I've always kept it a buck with you, honest with what I want,/ But you never offered change, for what I paid in full up front./ Yeah, I gave you the best of me, and you gave me the runaround,/ I was trying to build a home, you were selling off the ground./ Every promise was a loan that you would never pay,/ And I’m bankrupt from the effort of trying to make you stay./ It’s a lopsided contract, a debt I can no longer afford,/ I’m cutting all the ties and I’m jumping overboard./ You keep the "goddess" title, I’ll keep my peace of mind,/ Leaving the "one in a million" girl, because the well has run dry./ Suddenly the ground returns, the ocean disappears / I wake up gasping, shaking off a thousand bitter fears / The room is quiet, bathed in shadows dancing under moonlight / The only exit that I see is the one we took last night / I turn my head and see you there, tangled in the sheets / Tasting memories of your skin, smooth and salty, bitter-sweet / Your chest is rising slowly, your hand resting near my heart / A million miles away from where that nightmare had tried to start / I reach out so I can grip the curve of where your hip begins / Forgive me if I wake you up to pay for all my sins / The debt is gone, the maze is dead, the "exit" was a lie / I’m watching the real masterpiece beneath a peaceful sky / You aren't walking away... you’re right here where you stay / And I think I’ll find a better way for us to break the day / Go back to sleep, my goddess... or better yet wake up for me / 'Cause I’ve got some "interest" on that debt for you to take from me./
