A poison pen
Told you the truth
What you already know
And now it's time
To fall apart
Save the good in you

He cheats you
He lies to you
And you're not meant to mind
He's taken your best years away
But he's all that you can find

Today will be the way you dry your eyes and walk away
He's taken all the love you gave
And all the love you made

The box
You made a box
Put in every thought you had
The hopeful endless wishing
The cruel, the kind, the bad

You knew it
He would do it
And what you'd wade through
He's made of bones and rust and fear
Oh that man won't do

You're made of stronger stuff
And it's not you who needs to change
This is only one day
One day of many days

Today will be the way you dry your eyes and walk away
He's taken all the love you gave
And all the love you made
