Why Did You Leave Me Alone?

by Painted on Smile   Dec 30, 2008


Who do you think you are?
Can't you see that you've left your mark?
Do you even care?

Those arms that used to be so warm
Now leave me to fend for myself in this storm
Leaving me to fight my way through the night
Hoping I will last 'til morning's light

Rain pours down from clouds of olive green
Don't you know how much you mean to me
These clouds won't seem to fade
For I refuse to believe my time with you was a waste

You pulled me through the storm
Holding me and keeping me safe and warm
Helping me fight my way though the night
Giving me a reason to last 'til morning's light

Everything was different with you
Things had a purpose
And were so much easier to get through
With you the hardship and pain
Felt as if it would never come again

You led me through the storm
Holding me in your arms so warm
Fighting for me all though the night
Making me last ' til morning's light

But the voices of the surrounding air
Told me to beware
Yet still I wouldn�t let myself see
What was truly happening to me

Until you deserted me in this storm
Keeping me away from those arms so warm
Hiding from me in the shadows of Night
Unsure if I will last �til morning�s light

Sadly, the hardship and pain soon, again, came
The next time you spoke my name
You drop my hand and walk way
For there is nothing left to say

Stunned I stood in this growing storm
Frozen without your arms so warm
Stranding me here on this dark, stormy night
How would I last �til morning�s light

With a silver pen and a deep stain
There it will forever remain
For on my arm you wrote your name
But it is in my heart where I felt the pain

Who do you think you are?
What was the point of coming this far?
Do you even care?

Those arms that used to be so warm
Now leave me to fend for myself in this storm
Leaving me to fight my way through the night
Hoping I will last 'til morning's light
I hope I will last 'til the first morning's light
