May 2014
You were the burning sun in my world
Now my blue skies have all turned dark
But I know we can work this out
Just let go of all the doubt
Got my mind made up and I won't let go
Though I'm constantly fighting the urge to succumb
I'm traveling this rocky road all alone
I hope you understand why I can't pretend
that I don't need you here with me
I hope you know I can't break these chains
I crave you, breathe you, see you in my dreams
I'll never be able to replace you or fill the void you left within
You said you'd never leave me
But I look around now and you've disappeared
So I cry and I still try to save you because I can't escape you
Don't you know I love you?
Longing for you makes my world seem hazy
And the pain is killing me baby
I'm scarred so deeply time can't erase the pain
Why you coming at me?
Why all this struggle and strife in my life?
You said you wouldn't hurt me
never lie
But you used me
and it breaks me hard as still you abuse and
All this suffering won't suffice
Yet I'd still do anything to have you by my side
But now I'm standing still for my own selfish sake
for I know not what direction to take
I'm waiting for a sign
To show me if you are still all mine
Guess I'm waiting to see
If your love has finally ran out on me....
