Out Of The Picture

Dogwood

Let it go


Scrape it off


'Cause it's too late to remedy


The situation has passed your hands


Slipped right by


And they're much better off without you


The cloud that covered their sunshine


Glad I could help


Glad I could be the hammer that would drive


The nail into the wall of my downfall


Hang your life


And those pictures of how you were


Security replaced my portrait anyway


Remember when I told you so


I'm learning to let go


I'm learning not to open up


Learning not to share


Not that you care


My thoughts are all I have


I'm learning not to follow my perennial mistake


So now go


Live your life


Turning back, turning to salt


You realize this was my fault


And I lie here


Vision now clear


Shattered ego, broken pride


Fractured conscience, monocide


Forget about


The ones that you


Stepped upon along the way


I hope it will be raining on that day


Remember when I told you so


I'm learning to let go


I'm learning not to open up


Learning not to share


Not that you care


My thoughts are all I have


I'm learning not to follow my perennial mistakes
