I've been listening to this song all week, it helps me cry out my sadness and reminds me I'm not alone in it. It's a very pretty song so I thought I'd share it.

Third Day – Wire
It’s A Shame

I hate to be, to be the one
Who’s given up
And feels that all our hope is gone
But what I thought was a miracle
Just turned into the same old
Problem that it was

{chorus}
She longs for better days
She’s always been afraid
It’s a shame, oh it’s a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
It’s a shame, oh it’s a shame
I wonder if you’re ever going to change
It’s a shame

Ever since I can recall
She has been so afraid
Of you losing it all
What do you want
Do you even know
And is it worth the pain
You'll have to endure

{chorus}

You left her without leaving
You hit her without swinging
You took away without giving a thing
Except for pain and sorrow
I’m praying that tomorrow
You will open up your eyes and see

{chorus}

Good song, but think positive.
I’m praying that tomorrow
You will open up your eyes and see

I've been negative all week and actually not thinking of her, but tonight felt like praying again for the better of everything.

TooMuchSunShine, thank you for posting the lyrics, and thanks Ali for posting the YouTube link. I needed a good cry this morning as I grieve and was struggling to get the tears to come. This part was particularly meaningful to me:

"You left her without leaving
You hit her without swinging
You took away without giving a thing"

Those words sum up all of my relationships. Now I'm moving on to something healthier in the days and years to come...this song was a good reminder of what I need to leave behind.

May Day blessings,
posie
