Holding on to something I believed
Holding on to something real
Lately I can't breathe
No speaking, I can't feel
Nothing makes sense anymore
Completely blurring
Lines running together
As I cry from the hurting
Waiting
While the hardness and cold sets in
Numbness, leave this pain behind
Unfeeling, so life can begin
The hours have been spent
Dead and gone
I reach for you at night
And find that I'm alone
I dream of you
Even when I'm not sleeping
At night I toss and turn
Soaking my pillow with my weeping
I look at the pieces
Scattered across the floor
Paralysed by pain
I won't survive through much more
As the days go by
Harder it gets
Memories running through my head
A love I can't forget
I wake
To the sound of your voice
The sweet smell of your skin
To be crushed when I see
It's all an illusion.
I feel nothing for life
I desire no more
Only to give up
Since there is no one to live for
All those things
You said
All those promises
You made
Are empty lies
That will never fade
Your words repeat
Never ending in my head
Hearing constantly
Whispers said
I want nothing more
Than to forget you
But I fell in love
It felt so true...
I wait for you
To realize your mistake
And love me again
Dreaming of all the
Promises you could make
So here I am
Waiting for a love that will never come
Dying on the inside
For me there is no one
All the things that once made me smile
Now make me sick deep inside
You're everywhere I look, I cannot get away
There is nowhere for me to hide
You broke my heart
I promise, someone will break yours
Then you'll think back to the girl
That risked it all for you
And never looked back
You'll wish you never burned the bridge
That connected her heart to yours
True love comes once in a lifetime
You threw yours away
When everyone's gone you'll dream of my kiss
And know you should've stayed
