Bright days in May
They make my heart break
They raise the veil
From my hidden state
It‘s harder than it seems being the same
Being that girl I was before May
I left your side and walked away
Sometimes it feels like I‘m to blame
Bright days in May
when your time came
I could never decide if I was okay
I know it‘s wrong, I‘m ashamed to say
I wish for things that contradict
And the laws of reason are all too strict
You can‘t want that and then want this
But I can‘t make use of just one trick
Bright days in May
You were taken away
I fought half a battle to get you to stay
But who can I blame?
And now all I do is: I fight myself
I break myself up and I go through hell
I crumble to pieces and I still can‘t tell
If I ever did anything well
Bright days in May
But it‘s too late
A heart takes a beating
then turns to hate
If I sometimes forget the best that you shared
If I often forget to remember you cared
I can trace back each scar to a when and a where
I have perfect recall when it comes to the bad
Bright days in May
And they pass away
Every year the same
A nostalgic replay
