Nothing

Hope left nothing I can salvage
Nothing for my broken soul
I am alone, lost and helpless
Nothing left to make me whole

Sleep, love, sleep now, close your eyes
Dream of places far away
Though they'll try to bring you back here
Don't return to me today

I know not why you trust me
Why you've given me your love
I'm no demon from far below
But I'm no angel from above

So I leave now without regret
To save you from my worthless self
I'll tear out my broken heart
And place it high upon the shelf

Now I'm gone with no returning
Sorrow seeping slowly in
Tears of helplessness are flowing
Time for me to start again

Hope left nothing I can salvage
Nothing for my broken soul
I am alone, lost and helpless
Nothing left to make me whole
