The bed I've made by bowers

a piece from bowers, because it's been a while and i like this one.... crazy brit.

The bed I've made

So I'll distance myself,
And I won't talk about it,
Even though it's the only thing on my mind.

But it was my decision,
My own mind which I made up,
My own mistake.

So I'll lie in the bed I made,
Full of nails and broken glass,
It seemed so much softer when you used to lie with me.

I'll lie there not with a broken heart,
But with a heavy one,
Full of regret, it weighs like a led balloon in my chest.

We can't, she says,
It'll get easier, she says,
I'm sorry, she says,
No regrets, she says,
I know, I say, and that's the worst part.

I should have tried harder,
I took the easy way out,
I shouldn't have taken you for granted, I can see that now.

So I'll lie here in the bed I made,
Full of nails and broken glass
It seemed so much softer when you used to lie with me
