This Is As Deep As Love Goes

Ever since you've been gone
I haven't really been sane
& these pills overwhelm me
Along with all the pain

You're so blinded
By all the things you do
You're caught up in someone else
While I'm so caught up in you

How can you leave
Knowing everything we had
I guess the good
Doesn't always conquer the bad

Your kiss I still dream about
& your scent remains on the pillowcase
Flashbacks fill my head
When my fingers would outline your trace

This is as deep as love goes
& this is how crazy I get
My hands entwined your hands
They were the perfect fit

Now I'm so restless
& my hope wears so thin
The pills wore off
So I'm thinkin' about you again

You haven't called
I don't think you ever will
I'll hold my phone until then
Down goes another pill

I tried to be everything
I tried to be perfect
I hope when you think about it
You say it was worth it

I won't die here
I'll just hold my breath
Then come back to reality
When all has left

At the finally second
I'll grasp for air & while breathing fast...
I will realize you are just another love
Coming to pass

(no love is worth dying over. it will come again. it always does.)
