Out of Mind

I am so run down My feet are draggin' on the ground I have no rhythm, no rhyme You took my heart, but left me behind Now that you are gone, I am lost Never knew how much that would cost You held me close all these years You let me drown in my own tears No life jacket, you didn't even throw me a line Now I wander aimlessly, out of mind It's been three years since I last saw you Your whereabouts unknown, you left no clues My heart has hardened, my feelings are numb I look in the mirror, at this stone wall I have become Don't eve come back, never show your face I have the freedom, I have my own space I think about what could have been in due time But then again, as the saying goes, out of sight out of mind
