I hope the same
I can see the muddy footprints
On the sliding wood door frame
I can see the tracks of tires
But you left before I came.
Without a breath
Without a sliver
Of respect to my name.
And I just want to say
I hope someday, to you,
Someone will do the same.
Oh it could never be me,
I’ve got places to be
And I’m really much too tame.
And I’m just really pathetic-
You know, you’ve said it-
I love you much more than I claim.
Even when you stomp on my heart
I can’t go too far,
But I hope to you
Someone will do the same.
You just don’t know how it works,
Is to love just to hurt?
I don’t know if you’re the one to blame.
No such thing as sweet sorrow
Take this pain just to borrow
And I hope you feel a bit of shame.
You know one day you’ll leave
I’ll be finally free
And maybe someday to you,
Someone will do the same.
Or maybe I’ll be the one
Who is finally done,
And hits the ‘X’ on this stupid love game.
And I’ll leave you or your own,
Womanless, alone
So everyone can see you’re lame.
I’ll have my own home
With a man who dotes
On me like I’m the queen of Spain.
And I know I shouldn’t say this,
I know I should be anguished,
But someday for you I really hope
Someone will do the same.
