Happy is as happy does.
Always alone,
Always besotted.
Almost as though someone had plotted;
Against her.

Happy is as happy does.
Even as they use her trust.
All she does is sacrifice,
Her time and effort everyone's vice.
Broken and frozen,
She lays on the floor,
Crying out,
as they beg for more.

Happy is as happy does.
Even when they fill their lust.
She tries one last time,
To ask for help.
But they cant even see their own crime.

Happy is as happy does.
Now shes cold and drab as stone.
Never has she ever felt so alone.

I feel his absence like a hole in my heart.
When he leaves he tears my world apart.
I wish sometimes I had his voice on tape,
cause when he's gone it's like emotional ****.
When he's around I'm full and glad.
And when he's gone I'm empty and sad.
See him one moment and not the next,
then limited to intermittent text.
Despairing, delirious, emotional, distraught.
These are the feelings I have when he's not.
1,000 miles is pretty far.
All those roads of cement and tar.
Separating and pulling apart,
The love I have within my heart.

The rain is my tears,
The clouds my emotion.
The lightning is my heart-felt cries,
the thunder my devotion.
The wind picks my direction,
"For I am the storm,"
Says my reflection.

I wish you could hear my heart breaking.
See how I'm aching.
But even when I cry,
You say goodbye.
Can you feel the weight in my limbs?
Taste the lies I spread on my lips?
I resent that you are always the one to go.
That final blow.
Despite the need to leave,
I feel bereaved.
Continue to leave me be.
Then you'll see.
How you keep killing me.

I feel his absence like a hole in my heart.
When he leaves he tears my world apart.
I wish sometimes I had his voice on tape,
Because when he leaves it's like emotional ****.
When he's here I'm full and glad.
And when he's gone I'm empty and sad.
See him one moment and not the next,
Then limited only to intermittent text.
Despairing,
Delirious,
Emotional,
Distraught.
These are the feelings I have when he's not.
1,000 miles is pretty far.
All those roads of cement and tar.
Separating and pulling apart,
The love I have within my heart.

By night we live in darkness.
By day we hide from light.
By dawn we learn to shelter.
And by dusk we learn to fight.

I obsess,
I stress.
Make sure to treat everyone else best.
I try my hardest to make it goal,
To never hurt another soul.
You know they've heard the golden rule,
Yet everyone plays me for a fool.
Of all the people,
I'm least to judge,
Least to hate or hold a grudge.
But still they lie and hide from me,
It always hurts for me to see.
So now I sit alone in tears,
All because of others' fears.
