I never knew how much pain
a single drop of water could contain..

It leaves it's trail on my face,
like you left yours on my heart..

I want to fix what is broken,
but I have no idea where to start..

I'm so defeated and so sad,
We're just falling apart..

You say I'm crazy for crying everyday but I don't know how to handle a life with so much pain..

One step behind the other,
I keep my eyes ahead.
I'll keep myself together
If I watch where I have tread.

I'm sure I'm being hunted
By monsters in the night.
Not sure if I've been stunted,
Or if this is their true height.

But if the shadows wavered,
Or gave way to my stare,
I'd sing instead of quaver
And stand with shoulders square.

No time to sit and panic
Or just wait for the dawn.
Until I leave the manic,
I must keep trudging on.

Wait until I'm with you,
And then I might break down.
Take comfort when it's through,
When at last pain makes a sound.

Just save me a seat in the closet
I'm fighting my fears now:
Fear was the one to cause it,
But I will answer how.

The street four stories below me,
captivates me the same as the ocean.
Dark and smoothly paved roads,
paired with car engines that call to me,
the sirens of the street.
All I want is to drown in
the dark abyss below.
