By the way, when you left
A blow my world will never forget
I took my piece of you
And let the wind blow the ashes away.
And long, long after all
My teardrops finished their fall
They came back for even more
Revenge for my loving you.
Today, your name is who?
My heart pumps blood instead of you
Running alone; breathing
Fresh and completely anew
Amazing, isn't it?
My body has shed; now it fits
My extra baggage is gone
It's easy to carry on.
