Soothing

I know things aren’t quite what they seem
And I see you building up her dream
Lay down now in the bed that you made
As I watch your memory fade

A liberating sense of glory
In not telling her your life story
Let her believe what you’ll say
Let her decide how long she’ll stay

Don’t remember me when she’s gone
When she figures out she’s your pawn
I have the strength to let you go
To reap the seeds you must sow

Jealousy won’t return my heart
I’m off the road you always start
You’ve pushed the limit of your game
My heart’s no longer yours to maim
