Just Fine

Just Fine

It hurts
And pain won't be denied:
She'll have her fun, she'll make you ache and then
Leave you drained
And miles behind.

I want back yesterday,
I want my pride back,
I want my laughter in your eyes,
I want my smile to fill your head,
I want nothing changed,
I want
To be called amazing again.

Tonight
I danced myself tired
Amongst my friends,
While loud music
Did its best to make amends,
And in between the crowd and the smell of breathed-out cigarettes
I found some empty happiness.

And you? How long did it take you again?
Oh! No time at all -
She's there beside you
And I'm the fool, and I&;#8230;
Stare
Wearing my tight smile,
Holding my head high,
Looking you in the eye.
I've done crying, and jealousy's no threat -
I could take her,
I could have her anytime
And I tell myself
Tomorrow will get here somehow
Yes, everything's just fine.
