Blind Side
The last day of vacation,
you told me things had changed
The last day of vacation,
each word seducing pain
The last day of vacation,
a new look in your eyes
The last day of vacation,
unveiling your disguise
The last day of vacation,
your back to turn away
The last day of vacation,
our future gone astray
That last day of vacation,
the sun had left the sky
That last day of vacation
—hello became goodbye
