Lost without you


We cried a thousand tears in love;
I had never cried these tears before.
In my youth, everything seemed to be such fun,
But since the end of love, no feeling seems so sure.


So confident of paying the rent;
So sure to get that job we want.
So sure to lose all the money in the end;
The debt to love took us down to one.


Free from love, I can find no way to smile;
Inside I am a bullet train going off the rails.
I am heading into the darkness and mile after mile,
There is no hope left but to fail.


The shattered memories are never fixed;
The thoughts we lost along the way.
The stepping stones of life that lead to this;
The pattern of a fate, where I decided to stay.


I left half a heart with you;
I left my last kiss there too.
I left and walked out of that door
And all I have left is not being sure.


A step into the unknown room;
A place I have never seen inside my head.
No hand to hold, to keep me safe;
Lost without you…a lifetime of regrets.
