Dawn through the window blinds

Dawn through the window blinds

The sun shined through the curtain
The sun lit up the dark
just enough to see the hurt in
a blackened, battered heart

Dawn left through the window
or perhaps it was the door
Either way she's left him
as she's not with him anymore

He closes shut the window
to try to ease the wind -
to try to ease the hard times -
to try to please a friend

Because he knows she's only left him -
like the light that's shining in -
because that's the way things go
and that's the way it's always been

Still he only pleads for midnight
as a bit of sun keeps shining in
He tries to keep his eyes closed
but what he's forced to comprehend

only leaves him blinded
and woken by the sun
and constantly reminded
that he used to have someone

Dawn left through the window
or perhaps it was the door
All he knows is she's left him
and she's not with him anymore
