Southern Discomfort

I am tearing up pieces of old news
To mend all the leaks in my open wounds again
They're telling you everything
But it's okay
I've felt this before
But trust me, there's nothing on the other side of the door
Or at least nothing more
I'm just jealous because you fell out of love
With the one thing that you always seemed to be so free of
And if you can't find comfort in what we should have known
Then I guess we're better on our own
It's life's lesson taught a little too well
The only thing you have forever is always kept in a cell
You know we won't find comfort if we're both on our own
So let's make the best of the time that we're shown
So proposed
How does light seep into a mind so closed?
You're only focused on what glows
And it's been burning holes in hearts
Planning life before it starts
There's only three points to home
Grow, work, alone
There must be something
We can't be carved in stone
I'm just jealous because you fell out of love
With the one thing that you always seemed to be so free of
And if you can't find comfort in what we should have known
Then I guess we're better on our own
It's life's lesson taught a little too well
The only thing you have forever is always kept in a cell
You know we won't find comfort if we're both on our own
So let's make the best of the time that we're shown
And now it's pulling us apart
And now it's pulling us apart
It's taken us
Shaken us
I feel like I have mistaken us
As simple things with wedding rings
Abandoning what our future brings
