Gone Come Back

Dark cold night air fills my lungs I press on down this road I have no clue where it goes My feet hit the pavement Freshly wet from the storm The air feels wondrous as it brushes my hot face And dries my wet tears away How can this be me I want to forget it all I want to stay forever gone And not come back I feel lost as I grasp for something Anything to keep me going I just wish someone could hold my Hand through it all so I dont have to be alone through the worst of it After so much pain and hate Is it worth the tears and blood What about the others I've hurt With my own actions I run faster and faster But just then I look back To see my redemption They came to save me From this pain eating at me I am so far gone now Is it possible I think I am Gone and trying to come back And there they are to save me from myself I don't need to self medicate Or slice through my pain and memories But how can i burden them with my problems They refuse to let me go I may be gone but I look in all of your eyes and I see so many reasons why I am trying to come back
