"Grief" lyrics

"Grief"

Someone hurts you, you're supposed to hate 'em
Gets lost, move on, try to forget them
But your heart can't switch that fast when you cherish, and treasure, and love 'em
I wish it was that easy, grab a flight, drink champagne like on TV

But all that I'm left with
Is the tragedy I'm dressed in

I'm not bitter, or jealous, or raging
I've gone numb 'cause I saw the love draining
I miss what I was to you
This ain't a nightmare, it's true
I'm not angry, or vengeful, or broken
This is something else, a foreign emotion
I miss what you were to me
This ain't heartbreak, it's grief

Laying flowers, pink and purple roses
Oh, I stay for hours right till it closes
And it feels like it's a dream, we'll wake up together tomorrow
'Cause it just can't be real, how you feel, how I feel, how this feels

I block the light out
'Cause I don't wanna see the world without you now

I'm not bitter, or jealous, or raging
I've gone numb 'cause I saw the love draining
I miss what I was to you
This ain't a nightmare, it's true
I'm not angry, or vengeful, or broken
This is something else, a foreign emotion
I miss what you were to me
This ain't heartbreak, it's grief
And it just won't leave me

Wherever I go
It won't leave me alone
What are you doing now?
I love you more now, somehow

I'm not bitter, or jealous, or raging
I've gone numb 'cause I saw the love draining
I miss what I was to you
This ain't a nightmare, it's true
I'm not angry, or vengeful, or broken
This is something else, a foreign emotion
I miss what you were to me
This ain't heartbreak, it's grief
It ain't heartbreak, it's grief
And it just won't leave me
