My heart is warm,
My heart is ill.
My heart loves against my will.

Is that good?
Is that bad?
Please tell me, I'm becoming mad!

Should I be scared?
Should I stay brave?
I'm becoming my love's slave.

Should I be stiff,
Or should I sway?
I never felt love this way.

It's amazing what this love is.
It's just mine,
It's not his!

I don't wear those tears I wore.
I don't love him anymore!

And now it's my turn to make amends
And give some new love a chance.

Let me be empty;
Being empty is all I know.
Stop with all you're doing,
I won't let these feelings grow.

Let me cry for others!
I don't feel my pain anymore.
It was that pain that left
My soul wasted and sore.

Let me love myself a little.
I am tired of loving him.
Please! Oh, please let me!
It makes those memories dim.

Let me; just let me to myself.
I know what I must do.
And when I'm finished doing it
I swear I'll be loving you.

I am numb as I walk these hollow streets
Wondering why nothing really lasts
Beneath my clean, cold bed sheets
Where I am haunted by a ghost of the past

I feel guilt. I feel nothing but pain and sorrow
In my dark, empty, echoing chest
And I'm planning never to see tomorrow
Because nothing ever really lasts

Except you, who lives in memories
Memories of an ancient past.

I miss your lips on mine
Your gentle touch and soft skin
Words that make everything fine
That spark the fire from within

I miss the smile you send
The truth you speak when I am there
And that feeling I'm forced to comprehend
Waiting to kiss and smell your hair.

I miss you. I miss your voice
And without it I can't get through
And if I were again to have a choice
I would definitely choose you.

That day the skies were red
Like the earth when blood is shed.
That day my heart was blue
From the pain of missing you.

— The End —
