This room is starting to collapse
From the weight of my unease
October air crawls through my veins
How long until these feelings cease?

You are no longer the axis
Around which my world used to turn
I have heard every worn out lie
Why doesn't my heart ever learn?

I've been waiting for the ending
Since the moment you left me there
But even after all this time
I'm still clinging to empty air.

We haven't spoken in weeks
I should be hanging my head
It would be easy to cry right now
But I'm busy writing this instead.
