The Scene
it should have never been this way
but this is the way it is,
and this is the way it has been
i am the, ‘bad guy’ once again
but it was a bad scene,
and we were acting so bad
i am the one who is at fault
i keep the feelings locked away
only you occasionally raid the vault
i keep them saved for a rainy day
it should have never been this way
this should not have happened
the cracks were already there
and last night they became a chasm
the feelings harboured,
and it felt like a dark damp cavern
it should have never been this way
but time changes and rearranges
just about every single day
James Garratt – Monday 16th August 1999
