Just Set Me Free

My heart has been broken
Many a time it has
Somehow there's always a false comfort that its mended
Unfortunately, this is never true

I cry and cry every night
I've come close to tossing in the towel
But looking back is death really an option?
I feel as if she clings to me even in death

In my darkest hour
I find myself staring at the picture I have of her
Again with the false comforts
I imagine myself in her arms just one more time

I know that this may never come true
But it keeps me going on through
The endless tunnel of a love that never truly ended
And a heart that never truly mended

My eyes become red with agony
My legs become week with despair
Still the memories of her running to me
Make me push life forward

I dream of her late at night
I think of her in constant fright
I feel as if it is I who's abandoned her
I just can't help feeling that she's is being hurt

I want to jump out my window
Get in my car & drive to her house to see if she's alright
I'd throw rocks at her window like in the movies
And then she'd yell at me to go away

I'd be ready for this
And I'd do as she pleased
Because hearing her voice
Sets me at ease

And as I drove home that fateful night
I'd swerve off the road and into a ditch
No one to hear my cries
Because I don't cry

I embrace death and it's many tortures
I am as ready as ever to take on whatever
But knowing that the last voice I heard was hers
Would be enough to set me free of all my pain
