I am stuck living in the past tonight.
Trying to sleep with no prevail.
Constant thoughts of the one that is lost.
A reminder of all the ways,
the ways that I have failed.
Try to let go and ease the ache that eats away my soul.
I am broken now and realize that this pain may never go.
So I swallow hard and try to smile to hide the way I feel.
Deep inside,
I know this lie will keep me from moving on.
Alone in life,
as the same in death is how I will remain.
My hope is gone as I am bound,
to the Devil's gate.
This thought is held as I go off,
to take in my last breath.
To be at peace,
this shall never be,
actions with no refrain.
As I pass,
a picture remains,
of a tender smile.
My eyes turn gray as I fade away without you by my side.
