Day 8 - Stagnant Affair

I've always wanted to use the word stagnant in a song since Charlie Simpson (formally of Busted now frontman for Fightstar) sang the line "your stagnant beauty makes me glare" that was YEARS ago
Anywho the inspiration for this song was a not so recent breakup but cause it was exactly 3 months ago I thought I'd take a stab at it. It has a more up beat tempo then the rest of my songs so far.


Verse 1 - Please have a seat there's something I gotta tell you 
you may not like what I have to say 
those three months my time spent was wasted
and I got nothing to show for it

Verse 2 - You took the time to make me feel special 
but that was all a charade 
the last few weeks I spent just wondering 
when this way going to end 

chorus - My only regret was I didn't do it first 
a stagnant affair with no conversation 

Verse 3 - If I sound upset then I'm explaining this wrong
there are no hard feelings at all 
I've long moved on and I'm in a good place
I think it's time you did the same

(repeat chorus)

It's been three months to the day 
I'm still alright I'm still ok


I realized now that this makes the other party not so great and sound like it was a messy break up. and it wasn't. I may be exaggerating for the sake of artistry
