Learning To Live Forgetting I'Ve Already Died

The sound of your voice seems so clear

The silence is defining but there Is no fear

The splinter in my mind can never come out

I open my mouth and scream but no one hears the shout

I walk upon the path but never leave a step

I fall forever but I know I never ever lept

I toil with a question but never get a reply

I have no wings but I still manage to fly

I bleed all day but never loose a drop

My heart is broken but will the beat ever stop

I listen to music but never hear a thing

The feeling of loosing you always makes my ears ring

Darkness falls with the break of sunlight

Forever e touch with hands out of sight

Searching for time with no sand in the glass

Temporarily heartbroken knowing it will always last

A new story to be written even though the book is shut

Falling on my sword never causing a single cut

Wasting away with a new life born

Words of torment but none to scorn

Rivers of tears but never once cried

Learning to live forgetting I've already died
