The longest of nights lasting an eternity
As tics and tocs echo off these empty walls
Nothing moves or even vibrates
Besides the spontaneous quiver
Of my bottom lip
Dancing alone to the sadness
Dust resides in place of corners
Of every picture frame you took
Leaving hallow memories
To haunt this dreadful house
Staring at our bed
Still made from the last time
We both slept in it
My heart collapses
As my body follows
With a rush of pain
Stabbing into my mind
My dearest friend where can we run to?
Please take my hand
And show me where the pain stops
Or where the road ends
Or how the light dies
You've always been there for me
And hid away when I forgot
But I need you now more than ever
Please don't leave me here all alone
I may not be as strong as I once thought
And this scares me
Because you may be my only friend left

Leaving hallow memories
To haunt this dreadful house
Staring at our bed
Still made from the last time

As my body follows
With a rush of pain
Stabbing into my mind
My dearest friend where can we run to?
Please take my hand
And show me where the pain stops
Or where the road ends
Or how the light dies
You've always been there for me
And hid away when I forgot
But I need you now more than ever
Please don't leave me here all alone
I may not be as strong as I once thought
And this scares me
Because you may be my only friend left
