That Wine Stain

from The Skies We Look To by Kris Angelis

/

lyrics

It still feels like the day that the glass broke
And I’m bleeding all over the floor
I hear someone knocking but I can’t answer the door

You can’t feel what you don’t remember
You lost everything when you hid
Your body fell and I caught you
your heart never did

You said nothing good ever came from the bottle
You drank to forget and that was the problem
You don’t remember saying you loved me
But I do

You don’t remember me holding your hand (hand)
But I do

You moved on and I haven’t been able
You’re the ring on the table
That wine stain
That Fable
Don’t know how long I can last
My mind keeps playing it’s scratched
A stain isn’t sweet like the wine
It doesn’t get better with time
a broken record of Questions that I never asked

You told me the tale of my future with out you
I thought you were afraid
But you were just telling me plans you’d already made

broken machines were singing a death song
When I woke beside you that night
Then I saw that your panicked deep ocean eyes were alive

You said nothing good ever came from the bottle
You drank to forget and that was the problem
You don’t remember me talking you down
But I do

You don’t remember my arms around you
But I do

You moved on and I haven’t been able
You’re the ring on the table
That wine stain
That Fable
Don’t know how long I can last
My mind keeps playing it’s scratched
A stain isn’t sweet like the wine
It doesn’t get better with time
a broken record of Questions I never asked

You know what they say about time?
It’s a lie
