Unable to perceive right from wrong
Oh! How long…Oh! How long
When today’s today shall be relegated to the past
These precious moments would be forever lost,


Yesterday…
Heavens came my way
But tides kept me astray
Alas! Such was their power
A deluge, not a trickle or a shower,

How I now wish
The clock had stood still
I could’ve clasped those precious moments
Before my life just withered & ebbed away,

Now as I stand far from myself
Look back and say
Where was I?
Where was my soul?

That beautiful, blessed day
When Heavens came my way*.

Now let the rain fall down
Just as my tears use to
And let the oceans rise
Wash away the thoughts of you

Take away the memories
Of all the things you said
Of all the things we did
Erase them from my head

As long as you're still here
I'll spend my sleepless nights
Plagued by the image of you
And all those senseless fights

Replace your velvet voice
With the thunder claps
And blind my sight to you
With the lightning flash

I'm moving on now
With the crashing waves
So let the waters flood
And send me to my grave

Give me one last kiss
Before the moon fades away
Bringing a new day

I was his fresh start
After a life of hardships
And he was my end

Death is my only
Escape from this living hell
So long and good bye

I'm waiting by the phone
For a call that never comes
I'll sit here in the silence
With my broken heart, so numb

It's when you act like it's alright
I know that nothing's fine
You can try to tell your lies
But you were never really mine

Those three little words
Thrown around so much
Have they lost their meaning?
They've lost their euphoric rush

I want to beg, down on my knees
But I will never stoop to that level
I'll keep my pride and carry on
No matter how I may tremble

I know the place I want to be,
wrapped up in your arms
Where I fit so perfectly
Safe from all worldly harm

At least that’s what I once thought
but the years have taught me different
so many bitter battles fought...
I suppose my love wasn’t sufficient

I know the place I want to be,
forever in your view
where your gaze washes over me
like the sea, refreshing through and through

At least that’s what I once thought
but the dawn has taught me different
It brought the light, and you’ve been caught
revealing your lies, so incoherent

I knew the place I wanted to be
but now I know it’s wrong
you never really loved me...
*Now where do I belong?

The pain is coming back again
I don’t know what to do
I feel the walls closing in
I thought these days were through

The tears are flowing fast again
I can’t make it through the day
It hurts just to breath
Please tell me that you’ll stay

I’m on my own again
And I know that I can’t do it
Without someone to lean on
I know that I’ll submit

To these thoughts I have again
That tell me to end it all
Without someone to be there
There’s no doubt that I’ll fall

The pain is stronger than ever
And I know I want to die
And since I’m all alone...
I guess it wouldn’t hurt to try
