Song #3 "The Ring"

"The ring on your finger
it cuts me to the core
it says your heart is taken
while mine stays shattered on the floor

Talk, please just keep it coming
talk is all I get, all I can ask for
a sideways glance
on your way home to her

Oh, I've tried to get past the pain
to not imagine your face
but who am I kidding?

Oh, the face in the mirror
this girl staring back at me
she's a stranger with vacant eyes
with shattered hopes and distant smiles
she can't exist without the one
the one who cut her, the one she loves

So I put one foot in front of the other
day after day
sometimes don't know why I bother
Oh someone tell me why

You've got your life
mine got lost along the way
lost when you left me
broke it off and drove away

Oh, I've tried to get past the pain
to not imagine your face
but who am I kidding?

Oh, the face in the mirror
this girl staring back at me
she's a stranger with vacant eyes
with shattered hopes and distant smiles
she can't exist without the one
the one who cut her, the one she loves

Oh, it's a modern day Montague and Capulet
with eyes like yours
how the hell am I supposed to forget
the girl I was, the girl you know
she stays with you, and I am through
I am nothing without you

Oh, the face in the mirror
this girl staring back at me
she's a stranger with vacant eyes
with shattered hopes and distant smiles
she can't exist without the one
the one who cut her, the one she loves

Do you remember us at all?"
