Void

by MorbidCupcake   Dec 19, 2008


Your shadow lingers underneath my skin
And I can't handle it
Hands trembling without stopping
The future seems so far away
Tears welling up in my eyes
Somehow I still miss yesterday

No matter how strong I pretend to be
I always find a reason to break
And everytime I try to breathe
The scars begin to sting
You don't know how hard I try
To pick myself up off the ground
Because you never cared when you were around

I wish you weren't around, now

Your touch lingered on my skin
And I couldn't handle it
Hands in tremors, eyes in tears
And you're still standing there
The past seems too close behind
Why did we have to run out of time?
What makes her better than me?
Is it the scars that I let bleed?

No matter how strong I stand as
I always find the wrong time to crash
And everytime I try to walk away
The scars remind me what you used to say
You don't know how hard it is
To live with you suddenly not there
And even with all these things I miss

I still wish you weren't here

When I wanted you here
When I needed your touch
When all the things I tried to say
Got lost inside the dust
You took my life when you said goodbye
And here I am still crying and running out of time

I was void, like a ship set sail to doom
With you in the room
Like a windowpane already cracked
I wish I could take it all back

Everything back but you
