A Love Laid to Rest

The only thing i'm asking for
is the only thing i'll never get

it tears me apart
it eats away at me
every day it erodes away my emotions
until all thats left is a stone cold husk
you've done this to me
you took away my essence

you so casually hold my life in your hands

like a life cast aside
i wander aimlessly
through the confines of my mind
searching for the answer
thats been right in front of me

you so casually hold my life in your hands
