I thought leaving would fix it
But the feeling never left

The churning, the unsettled mess had yet to cease
And I wondered how long this pain would last

I thought time would fix it
But the feeling never left

They say that time heals everything but I realize the truth
And that is time only blurs the pain

I thought photos and memories would fix it
But the feeling never left

They only remind you of what you are missing
And sometimes that’s all it takes

And then I thought that nothing would fix it
That the feeling would never leave

That sometimes blurred pain is the best you can get
And that forever will never seem so long
