Without Your Lyric

strange ways, and messed up days, I sit and think of your unusual behavior- contemplation, without initiation I'm on the brink of signing your waiver. our melody's playing, I can barely hear it... how can I sing, without your lyric. a crazed mind, I couldn't find, and me so blind to all your mistakes- I try to rewind, and pray in time, I can give you a serious break. fleeting moment, too quick to remember... lost in atonement, to sweet surrender. in a haze for days and days, the melody plays but no rhyme- begin again, losing my friend, your memory stays and rings in chime. there was this song I wrote for you, it was a tale of your eyes so blue, I held your feet and still you flew, suicide took you away from me, now for your touch I am thirsty. mental illness, stole you from me... but in the stillness, it set you free.
