Waiting Is Hard
After awhile I start going crazy
I start to live in the past
I picture a fake dream
Where we would actually last
I will not move on
I can only hurt
All I picture is us
And I am on alert
Even my dreams aren't enough
I want them to come to life
I want to lift away this pain
I want to give up this strife
I am stuck on repeat
I constantly remember you
You were all I had
You were all I knew
The pain only gets worse
It pulses with the beat of my heart
I can only think of one thing
This pain is tearing me apart
How long can I last?
How long will memories be enough?
This smooth dead end road
Is only becoming rough
I am already at the point of no return
It hurts worse with every breath
All I can do is picture a life without pain
All I can do is picture death
Without you who can fix me?
Without you who can set me free?
Without you what am I left?
I guess I'll try to wait and see..
