Pain Of You Leaving

You leaving me destroyed me
It's more than my heart can bare
All I want and need in this moment 
Is a true friend who will care

Someone to help comfort me
But there is no one here
All that is here for me
Is a painful and growing despair 

Why you wouldn't stay I don't know 
But I can't keep you out of my head 
It was always worse late at night 
While I laid alone in our bed

I'm so hurt and broken 
To the point I can't sleep 
I never could have imagined 
Your leaving would cut so deep 

You left a wound on my heart 
That I doubt will ever heal
How can I be so numb
But this heartbreak I feel 

I'd give anything in this world 
To make this hurt go away 
This is pure agony on my soul 
I struggle to get through the day 

It has me praying to God 
Who is a stranger to me
I beg and plead for him
For some kind of mercy 

I can't keep myself from crying 
Because I can't stop thinking of you 
I want for this nightmare to be over 
But you swear we are through 

This headache is dragging me down 
Deeper and deeper into an abyss 
What did I ever do in this life 
To be hurt and destroyer like this

I'm stuck hurting and alone 
While you are out there moving on 
Your life never slowed down 
And I can't get over you being gone
