The Unknown


By my side is a man who is unknown to me
His Glassy eyes focusing in and out
Getting no understanding from the words from my mouth
He doesn't know my language
This is a man I thought I knew, but all that changed
Changed when he was with you
Him screaming my name, but making love to you
Saying words that meant the world to me
Now they are just words that make me cry
How can I trust with you in the picture?

Love of a lifetime shattered the moment
He screamed my name, but he was with you.

Now beside me sits a boy I used to know.
Mixed feelings are confusing my calm mind
All I know is that you replaced me,
And now he wants me to replace you
I'm speaking a language he doesn't want to hear
