Screaming Without Lungs

by amber   May 23, 2007


I wish I had what he needed
To be on his own
Cause I feel so defeated
And he's feeling alone

Is this what you call freedom?
Is this what you call pain?
When will all this chaos
Finally pass as sane

His heart broke to pieces
But I can't catch them all
Is there anybody out there?
Someone to catch our fall

Everything is meaningless
And I'll take it as my own
Because I'm also scared to death
That I'll die alone

    Whoa! I like this -- this has tugged my heart exceedingly!

    In general, the subject's compassionate and sombre tone of voice endears to me a slightly plaintive yearning for support and so-ons and so-ons... It was short, simple, whereas it was quite effective in delivering its message. Nicely done!
