My Death Of You

Once again I cannot sleep the echos keep me awake
The once vivid images of you have now faded
I can no longer make your face out in the crowd
The chains that held down my heart have been unraveled
And I can no longer hear your voice inside my head

These words I write are not for you, but me
They allow my mind to empty and for my soul to find rest
So take a peek if you wish

I no longer will battle for you, I put down my sword
So many more words to say, but I haven't the strength to say more
I could chase you forever however there is no point
Today you're wish comes true, the day I say goodbye to you
Today is the day, I let my heart go for you

You question "We can still be friends" I answer you "Yes"
Friendship is different from love however and this will be true
My heart for you will no longer grow, and its time for the part of you inside me to die
Don't hold me to my warmness long ago, because you denied it so

And now I fall and wait for my heart to explode
To rid my memories of you, I can't bear them so
And as I finally fall to the dirt, I'll smile
I'll smile because my heart can finally be anew
