The Lonely Grave

by tiffany   Jun 4, 2004


My heart is open, but you closed it
I am willing to give it a chance, but you aren't quite as willing
I'm ready to bear my everything to you, but you aren't there to take it
My feelings have been unsealed, but your feelings are concealing

I have tried my hardest to be the one you want
I have done my best to be exactly what you are
I have given up me to be your everything
But you aren't feeling it too so far

When the time comes and you're finally ready for me
Then my heart will be here open only to you
When all the time has passed and I've given up all hope
You'll come around and say I love you too

My heart, my mind, and my soul are bearing on yours
Can't you feel this feeling that I'm feeling for you?
I've given up my life to become a part of yours
But it seems as if I've done all that I can do

Why won't you open up your heart and let me in?
Why can't I be apart of your life?
I want you to know that I will always be here for you
I'll take away all your heartache, sorrow, and strife

Becoming a part of you would complete me
But now it seems as if you aren't ready for me
So I'll live my life alone, in search of your love
Waiting for you is all that I can be

Every breathe I take in, I breath out the sorrow
The loneliness of not having you around
I wish you would become a part of me
Because without you, my heart has broken down

It has been many years and I have waited for you
But finally, my wait has come to a stop
My life has been a life of complete loneliness
Because I have wasted my years waiting on you

Now that I lie here, thinking about my wasted life
I regret not being a part of someone else's life
I gave up my time and love and gave it all to you
But I couldn't stop hoping that I could be your wife

My grave is kind of lonely without a loved one lying next to me
My life has been wasted years
I was crazy to have ever been in love with you
But I didn't know that my end was quite so near
