I Wish You Were Here
I sit down to think about the world again
Think about the life that never lets you win
All they ever say is life isn't fair
To go against this law only few shall dare
I feel like something is completely wrong
As I listen and cry to this love song
I feel alone even when I am with my friends
Its a different type of alone and it never seems to end
There is something missing deep inside
I search my soul to find where it hides
I see it in a shadowed place just outside of reach
It sits there and sucks away my mind like a thirsty leech
I look back to find some peace in the past
But only for a moment does it last
My mind seems fragile like broken glass
I sit and dream until the feeling will pass
But all it does is stay and yell at me
It pulls me to something human eyes can't see
Lost with out my friend to guide me away
You are the memory that forever will stay
As I sit here locked behind the wall of a door
I think about the face that I will see no more
Sometime I have felt like you were very near
Oh, how I wish you were here
