I Lay Dying

Thinking of you while I lay dying 
The pain is so intense 
I lay here screaming in pain 
Hyperventalating to keep the oxygen coming 
Crying over the one I have lost. 
If only I could go back 
And erase the wrongs I've done to you. 
For now though, 
I continue pining away in your shadow 
I lay here dying
