I used to think I ruled the world
But now the days are long and cruel
Day by day I make it through
But I couldn't make it without you.

I ruled the world yet now you see
There's nothing special about me
We're both the same, me and you
Yet all alone I make it through

Without your hand in my hand
Without your grip to help me stand
I'll make it through my life alone
But I'll always wait for you at home.

That tiresome life
That pulls you away
Keeps you from me
It makes my heart fray

With you by my side
I conquered it all
Without you I stumble
Alone, I fall

These longest of days
That pass us both by
Like a rose without water
I wither and die

You're the blood in my veins
The strut in my stride
But I'm Longing for the comfort
Of you by my side

You cannot love these eyes of mine
For this heart of mine loves you not
You cannot have this soul of mine
For this mind is mine to keep

I cannot grant your every wish
I cannot greet your every day
I will not have your hand to hold
I will not watch as we grow old

Your love for me my love affair
Cannot last and will not fair
Your love for me my loveless friend
Will not start and will not end.

My ways are set, my mind is mine
My heart is taken by another
We cannot love and will not marry
My life and love you will not carry

That feeling of loss
That never goes away
Hangs over your head
Takes over your day

The feeling never passes
As time flows by
And days turn to weeks
Til time has no meaning

When you feel this way
Every day
All you can say
Is this;
I hurt.

This hatred my dear
of the healthiest years
is worse than we feared dear
worse than we feared

it eats you alive
and tears you apart
this hatred my dear
its breaking my heart

This hatred my dear
of body and soul
of life and love
of joy and tears

Its dragging you down
to your 6 foot deep home
Leaving us behind
sad and alone

our times and our smiles
alive all the while
ill miss those the most
while i wander for miles

Alas my dear
its time to part
sad and alone
its broken my heart.

Unwanted but not unscathed
In the way yet invisible
That feeling that kills
When no one else cares
When nothing seems to matter
When all seems a loss

The shoulders give way
And the world shatters
Into a million pieces
Every piece matters
Every person matters
Except you

You're the piece
That broke away
Apart from the bunch
Separate from the herd
The ugly duckling
In a material world

The curse that haunts
It slashes your wrists
It drugs up your mind
And It ties the noose
That hangs you up
When you're hung up on life.

The wind was dead calm
An eerie chill hung in the air
I knew something just wasn't right.
But what....

That cold breeze on your back
Sends shivers up your spine
Unsure of the cause
Yet aware of the feelings
That seem to haunt your dreams
And reek havoc on your day

By night, a cold sweaty nightmare
By day, a bad feeling that lurks
Something is happening
Something is changing
Something...
But what....
