Still
I'm desperately broken
Clinging on to what's left of emotion
It just won't go away
Still standing next to me like my shadow in the day
And cold like the bed I can't fill alone
Where is this going
Not found, and I can't keep going
Still my mind as the fears wash over me
Locked in to an empty room
Going insane in the flood of nothingness
Fear me, I am but empty words
Stuck in a world yelling out to be heard
Succumb to me world so I'm not alone
If only all was fine, in the comfort of my home
So let it all take me away
I miss that one sunny day
when we walked through the fields and lay in the sun.
I'm scared.
I'm scared I'll never feel that way again
When everything was perfect.
Do you even know how hard it is for me to see everyone else so happy
And knowing that I'm not
Nobody knows I'm not.
If I could find that again I'd never let it go
And I pray they'd know I'd never let them go
I want to be helpless in the tide of her eyes
Helplessly found by the way she makes me feel
This half of an existents isn't whole without her
