Only Me - Part 2

The coast is clear now, The masks they had on, is now left there on the ground where they took off, I now look at their pictures hung on my wall, And hear a little of them every now and then, I sleep and awake on the sound of the hollowness of their words, I'm breaking into a whole new space, With no one there, " It's just you" my shadow whispered, Caught by the shiver of the loneliness, I've been there, I'm doing it all over again, But this time, I choose doing it, I don't want to have you again, I don't want to lose myself again in losing you, I'm broken by the wrong choices I've made, I'm damaged by the regrets I feel, The weight of them is taking my strength away, All what I've been doing, is pushing myself to the edges, To fall and feel a rush, to set fire and feel burned, Easy and hard to every interruption and distraction, I wish one day, All this would leave me behind, Let me go, Back to myself again.
