Debt (All I Know)

by Some Random Human   Nov 17, 2019


It's hard to ignore all the pain in my chest,
this doubt in my mind, can I ever find rest,
so torn from the war now my heart's just a mess,
I'm starting to find I can't cope with my stress,

All I know is, I'm awake but I'm still dreaming,
all I know is, I hear your call but we're not speaking,
all I know is, everything I need just leaves me,
all I know is, tears won't fall but I'm still grieving,

So where have you gone, because I can't find you,
I just can't survive, I won't even try to,
too hard to hold on, how could I remind you,
our love was alive, I guess that it died too,

All I know is, I'm awake but I'm still dreaming,
all I know is, I hear your call but we're not speaking,
all I know is, everything I need just leaves me,
all I know is, tears won't fall but I'm still grieving,

All alone, I'm lost within,
I tried to count the cost again,
all I know is I'm in debt,
I owe this life to my regrets,

All I know is, all I know is,
all I know is, all I know is,
all I know is, all I know is,
all I know is...all alone...

    A person never realizes how devastating losing a loved one can be until they are gone. I feel your pain with every line and I'm sorry you are going through this. Hugs-
