The Love You Let Too Close Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This isn’t just another sunset, finality hangs low in the air
The last page of a story all too short
You can see there was a battle here
Substance and a pain eternal, infidelity so infernal
A friend, lover, song and a brother, taken too early by his own hand
The poison lays on the table
Note with a final goodbye within arms reach
If only we could see it in your eyes, so unstable
If only you could’ve shared the pain with me. If only

[Chorus]
You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury the pain, instead, it buried you
You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury it all
Now I just go through the motions
Watching it all just fade away
Now I just go through the motions
Taking it all day by day
Now I just go through the motions
Wishing that I could’ve noticed
Now I just go through the motions

[Verse 2]
March 26th, the day you left us
Broken by the love you let too close, I couldn’t see
The pain in your heart now it lives in your mothers eyes
And now you’re gone and it’s killing me

[Chorus]
You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury the pain, instead it buried you
You couldn’t bury the pain, I couldn’t save you
You couldn’t bury it all
Now I just go through the motions
Watching it all just fade away
Now I just go through the motions
Taking it all day by day
Now I just go through the motions
