The Words
Of your silence
The complexity
Of your simplicity
The warmth
Of your cold heart
The companionship
Of your empty arm
My eternal love
For your loveless soul
I lie in bed at night
And dream
Terrible awful dreams
You don't want me
Don't need me
Don't love me anymore
I want to see you
To touch your face
But the Distance is our eternity
Separating us forever
There is no love
Strong enough
Worth enough
To fight this eternity
There is no love left
To conquer the land
No love left
The lend the upper hand
There is only this chasm
We built with the empty
Distances of land
This one got away from me, the best and the worst are written that way
You alone
Built this home
You filled it
With things you love

Still after all that
It doesn't feel like home
Still you feel like
You're suffocating in yourself

It is your house
Built with your hands
Filled with your loves
Why are you so lonely
It's easier to hold on
Than it is to let go
It's easier to say okay
Than it is to say goodbye

It's better to let go
When you don't want to hold on
It's better to say goodbye
When you're settling for okay
Her heart yearns as her soul aches
Breathing in and out feels like a mistake
Once loved but not today

The notes they wrote pressed to her chest
Knowing each day he loves her less and less
She'd give anything to escape from this

Rolling over to hide her face
Crying is how she chooses to end the day
Why she pleads with no one why?
It's not easy to love me
I know
I never really belonged here
I know

I thought I was safe here
It's true
I was sure of my home here
It's true

You don't know me at all
Not really
You'll never wish you did
Not really

Maybe that's why I'm dead
It's certain
Maybe you just don't know
It's certain

Just don't pretend you care
I'm fine
All I ever did was lie
I'm fine

— The End —
