There are days when the world,
Slips beneath your feet
Taking you down
Into the darkness:
An ocean of your tears.

A million spaces between us,
A million unknown voids
You won't talk about them.
But every move you make,
Vibrates back to my dreams.
And every lie you told,
I can see and feel across the seas.
I'm the only one who knows;
Left with these searing truths,
My mind wakes up screaming.

There are days the world
crashes around my silent agony.
Taking me down
To the depths of an ocean
Where all my heartache collects.

You walked away again,
Leaving me with ideas of you.
A feeling that your heart
never wanted me.
Despite all your tears,
And the words you swore were true,
The actions taken
Tell a thousand different stories of you.

Sleepless hours of destruction
in my shattering heart.
Tormented by visions of you
Holding someone else,
on the other side of this falling world:
A place I'll never be.
It's here you've left me.

The world as we know it
Has ended for us.
I've forgotten how it feels
To be chosen through love,
To be someone's only one.
Despite the fears.
Despite the unknown.
And it's tearing me apart.


Truth in actions is the only thing that saves us. So we fall apart, to the depths of our heartache, broken and destroyed, unwilling to breathe, but we stand up again and live out our truth: I deserve. That is the truth.
