Life has never seemed darker
I find my mind drifting back
Racing circles around memories
A never-ending track

Though I am so very tired
Exhausted from keeping pace
I'm desperate to escape the loneliness
So I refuse to forfeit this race

It's always one step behind me
Sometimes I trip and fall
When that happens I have no choice
But to get lost within it all

The sadness overwhelms me
To the point I would rather die
Than bear another miserable day
Where I waste my time in bed and cry

It seems my supply of tears is endless
They never ever run out
It's hard to feel happy for one moment
Because you're all I think about

I never thought the pain of your absence
Would hurt more than any other ache
Life feels like a reoccurring nightmare
Except I am already awake

No matter what I am doing
My skin yearns for your touch
I should have known better than to let
You matter to me this much

But I couldn't help falling hard for you
As hard as I tried to stay away
You are a drug and I needed more and more
High of the lovely words you'd say

Now you're gone and I'm feeling the hole
Left when you left me here
Nothing begins to fill it up
Only you can make it disappear

I dont know why I wasnt enough
But I guess you wanted more
So I'm stuck here holding onto broken pieces
Of the love we shared before
