I pulled in the drive and
hardly recognize
What I see on the front porch, what’s left of my life
This once was my home and now all that I own
Has been packed up and stacked up outside
I ain’t done nothing wrong,
what the hell’s going on?
Is this I’ve worked for so hard for so long?
Is hardwood and cardboard the best I deserve
For all I’ve invested in gone
Bare floors and boxes the doors are all locked
Through the window I see what you’ve left here for me
A note on the door, you live here no more
And all that I’m left with this time
Are bare floors and boxes, inside out pockets
A lipstick red written goodbye and no reason
why
I load them up one by one as I
dial up your phone
And
that all too familiar voice message comes on
I’m sorry I missed you as I set and listen
And patiently wait for the tone
To say I’ll be alright and
move on with my life
Somewhere
there’s someone who’ll love me tonight
This one’s for me, you know just where I’ll be
As the night falls I’ll keep you in mind
So now that
I’ve paid for mistakes you have made
And fallen victim of the game that you play
I dust myself off, stand up and walk tall
Drove me crazy, but I drove away
Form bare floors and boxes with
inside out pockets
A
lipstick red written goodbye and still don’t know why
