Afterthought
~~~~~~~~~~~
The more you keep pushing me away..
The longer you leave me in the cold..
The more all the colors become gray..
The stronger the darkness will take hold..
Like a scene from a pleasant dream..
Once cherished but soon forgot..
I'll never be your priority..
I'm just an afterthought.
I'm a treasure that's lost its pleasure..
Left in the attic to rot..
Please spare me your indignity..
I'm just an afterthought...
The more bitter tears you make me cry..
The less my importance seems to rate..
The sooner that my sorrow will run dry..
The more my love will become hate..
Once unmistaken but now forsaken..
You loved me, now love me not..
A burning desire losing its fire..
I'm just an afterthought..
I fade away more and more each day..
My insignificance cannot be fought..
I'll always be your vague memory..
I'm just an afterthought..
