Leave me breathless
Forget the words almost spoken
My will is bent but not yet broken
A minute of your time, one small token
Watch me slip and fall away
Leave me here to wither and decay
Witness me drown in the abyss
I reach out, hoping to be saved
But you're not there to rescue me
But you don't care as you stare
While I sink into the ocean of my pain
You don't know what it's like
How can i make you understand?
If you could see what I see
Or feel what I feel
You'd know this love is real
You'd know that I'm dying inside
While I watch you with another
Giving her all the love once given to me
Feel me yearn for your smile
As I watch it bestowed on someone else
Love is a minefield
One misstep and all is lost
I search for a place to hide
Lick my wounds in secret
I gather my strength
In an attempt to live again
After all this time
There's still scars on my heart
