The days fade away like dust into the wind,
The nights prove the darkest of them all,
You said forever, forever, forever ..
You said you wouldn't watch, as I relentlessy fall.
I promised nights of caring,
Of love, laughter, and dreams,
I promised forever without knowing,
That the love was nothing it seems.
I was another toy to the shelf,
Another cube to the block,
Another piece to your puzzle,
That seems to be in lock.
You showed me things I had never imagined,
Things I never knew,
You showed me love could be something beautiful,
Something that came from deep inside of you.
But you left me here,
Hanging on hope,
Dying to know why,
You left me here wondering,
You left me here to cry.
I trusted you with my heart and soul,
I trusted you with my life,
You gave me nothing but the best,
And proved to me nothing but strife.
I watched as you walked away,
With a smile on your face,
You pushed it away like it meant nothing,
Like it was just a race.
A race to see who could fall faster,
A race to see who would end up lonely,
A race to see who would win,
A race to believe in love, if only.
If only you would open your eyes,
And see that I can't do this alone,
If only you would realize,
There's nothing left to be shown.
