If You Only Knew

If you only knew you were the drug in me
The only thing that I could see
Day by day you walked away
You left confirmed but here I stay

If you only knew how the sun rose
out of the abyss the sun chose
to rise out of bed like I do
Only reason I rise is for you

When I'm dead and lying in a grave
Put on a smile and through it be brave
Pick a rose like one would pick for a bride
and place the red flower by my side

A heart without blood will not go on
Without you I cannot go on
You may wonder what's the clue
You would know if you only knew
