I Cannot Live
sometimes i think of you
and seeing your smile
my face brightens up
and for a moment lifes worth while
but then i realize
whats done is in the past
i no longer have you
and i quickly start to gasp
i know i should be over this
and i know i should move on
but something is holding me back
its hard to stay strong
i know that you're over me
and i'm just a memory in time
but i cannot seem to let you go
or get you from my mind
my heart is shattered into pieces
that are to small to view
my mind is going crazy
without having you
i told you i would love you
for the rest of my life
i didnt know i would lose you
it never crossed my mind
but now it is over
and you seem so far away
no matter if your standing there
in front of my face
i see that you're talki9ng
but i'ms so engulfed in pain
i cannot seem to hear the words
you are seeming to say
i cannot seem to realize
that this truly is the end
i know deep inside
but thinking of it makes my life end
i cannot lose you forever
thats one thing i can say
i cannot live a life
where you dont exist each day
