Another sunrise I wake to alone Tell me my love What's the purpose in this again? You're in the next room but may as well be on another planet The distance between us screams How do I fix this? I wouldn't know where to begin The further you drift away The more desperate I become I can't pinpoint where I lost you My only relief from this torture The smoke I inhale... within seconds I go numb Just going through the motions Two strangers co-existing in this cold and lonely house My skin begins to rot from your neglect I'm drowning in this room in the memories of our love While you sleep out on the couch

Drowning in the memories
Another sunrise I wake to alone Tell me my love What's the purpose in this again? You're in the next room but may as well be on another planet The distance between us screams How do I fix this? I wouldn't know where to begin The further you drift away The more desperate I become I can't pinpoint where I lost you My only relief from this torture The smoke I inhale... within seconds I go numb Just going through the motions Two strangers co-existing in this cold and lonely house My skin begins to rot from your neglect I'm drowning in this room in the memories of our love While you sleep out on the couch
