The Book Lyrics

From the back of the book are the twice written pages
A story of two lives aligned
What the words cannot say is here after the day
How the things can't escape once they're stuck in your mind
And oh, I tried

Now the E's that were there as a feeling to share
Are now wrapped up and packed up away
The look through the phone as the change of the home
when you asked me, you begged me , I wanted to stay

And you'd ask for the truth but you'd never believe it.
Without pain our life was divine

And all I had, went there with you, and all I am ended with you
But I do now what I always wanted to do.
And I do best without you.

You'd only leave when you'd think I was staying
Not clear a space where my body is laying
Can't learn the rules of the game that you're playing
No matter how hard I try.

And how my life will be this time
With faith and latitude resigned
Dread the day to say goodbye
And what is real, will find

Now the front of the book with its empty lined pages
A pen there just aching to write
And the string line between us that holds us together
will weaken and break if we pull it too tight.

And you'd ask for the truth but you'd never believe it.
Without pain our life was divine

And oh, I tried
And oh, I tried
And all I can say is, oh, I've lived today
And all that I can say
Is I tried.
Oh, that I tried
Oh, that I tried.
