If I could tear open my insides, and show you the pain you've caused,
Would it do any good, or will I just remain lost?

If I could gather the right things to say,
Would you listen and take my hand,
Or would you just shy away?

If I told you I was craving your touch,
Would you come hold me tight,
Or am I just asking too much?

If I ceased breathing tonight,
Would you feel any pain,
While I seek out the light?

I drift along this cold, dark sea.
All alone, it's only me.

You fill my mind as I float along.
You feel so right, but I know you're wrong.

I look over the edge of the boat,
And my mind begins to wonder....

I leap off the side of the boat,
And plunge into the water.

The sea is cold,
My breath hitches in my throat.

It won't be long now,
My body begins to float.

It can't be too terribly long,
My body may still be here,
But my mind has been long gone.

I close my eyes,
And darkness falls.

I won this fight,
You've lost it all.

I'll close my eyes
And just drift away.
Maybe sometime soon,
You'll be here to stay.

I know it takes time.
Darling, that's okay.
I'll be by your side.
Just don't fade away.

You're scared, I can see.
Everyone around worries you.
Please realize that there is no need
For you to be afraid of me.

You can take my hand,
I'll show you the way.
I won't misguide you,
Or lead you astray.

I won't hurt you,
Or leave any scars.
You can stay by my side,
Like the moon and the stars.

I won't say that I love you.
For that, it's a bit too soon,
But darling, believe me when I say
That I truly care about you.

I'll open my eyes,
You're not by my side.
I'll just drift back off,
Then I can hide.

I had a really strange dream.
Something was wrong.
I had woken up,
You were long gone.

I had a really strange dream.
My fear had come true.
You said it wouldn't happen,
But you had left, too.
