Talking in your sleep
knowing I'm the only one
never to be hurt
never to see that face again
not from me was that ever so silent gift
it was from the one
that had been there in the dark
the sandman that slips away
the one you never see
when the morning lights are dim
and when you are on the edge of nothingness
the fading smile that gently leaves your face
that was never meant for me
This is why in my time
I have been twisted and scorned
my face set to frown
the emotion for all to see
my happiness striped away
from years of distrust
never being truly loved
now in my final days
I want to give it all away
all of my pain
why should I be the only one
that feels the pain of a broken heart
now after all this time
Ill give you that joy
the gift of life
