Divorce Lyrics - Singles - Craig's Brother

She's breaking up, she's falling down 

She's holding her fists up now 

Her eyes meet my face but we don't look the same 

She walks away on bloody knees 

Her swollen face hides her tears 

My mind strains for words but my tongue won't obey 

You're just a shadow now, of the girl I used to know 

Your broken song is maimed and slow 

You strain your face to bear that smile 

Your teeth clenched tightly all the while 

And though you search so thoroughly 

For some place to put the blame 

It only rests on angry shoulders 

And you don't look the same 

Your pretty face now contorted haggard with shame 

I try to recognize your anger 

I try to recognize your hatred 

I try to find some purpose for your pride 

So cease your screaming now 

Because your voice is worn and hoarse 

Your song insinuates divorce 

Your poison love, I won't pursue 

You're not the lover I once knew 

And though you speak so firmly of maxims so bold 

Your lips mouth words of love 

But still your voice is callused and cold 

I try to understand what made this mess unfold 

I'm sure you couldn't be blamed 

Your features haven't changed 

And yet I can't imagine why you don't look the same 

And your song of broken trust is grating on my ears 

I'm tired of standing passive while you're preying on my fears 

I'm tired of trying to fight, I'm tired of taking sides 

You say that you're not angry but I see it in your eyes 

I'm tired of hearing rumors, I'm tired of hiding shame 

I'm tired of pointing fingers and never taking blame 

I'm tired of trying to talk, I've nothing left to say 

I'm tired of going on, so I'm going away
