New Song With An Old Beat

The same pain returning just in a new time and a new day

What am I gunna do
When I went and lost you
What is gunna be left for me
When everyone is gone and I'm lonely

What am I gunna do
If I can't hold onto you
What am I gunna say
When my love is dead and gone away

When the world crumbles
And the smiles fade away
I'll be left in the rubble
Standing in my own way

Everyone I touch is hurt
Everyone I kiss is burnt
Who am I gunna hold onto
If I couldn't even keep you

With you gone
There is nothing left of me
Just some dust
And a song with an old beat

You swept me off my feet
Laid me down gently
I just got used to you with me
Learned to trust you completely

Now you're gone
And I look to see nothing beside me
Just your pillow
And my love left behind

I hold your picture to my heart
And let me break down farther
I hold your key
That you once promised was just for me

It's not like I haven’t been broken before
But this hurt is new
The love was new
This song is for you

Left me in two
With your key to hold onto
Nothing but a memory
And a whispered lie of

I love you
I once did
Couldn't deny you
And it led to my end

What am I to do
Alone in my bed
With tears
And memories

I hope your happy with her
I hope she makes you laugh
I wish you the best
I'll clean up the mess

Even with the pain
Screaming in my chest
I'll smile like a good girl
And give you a hug goodbye

To weep in my own pile
Of whatever is left of me
With a broom and pan
To scrap in the rest of my heart

Nothing left
But a small pile of ashes
And a new song
With an old beat
