My Death

Every time I look behind
it's only you I see,
Lying awake every night
I wonder if you see me,

Lost in your existence
I think of nothing else,
I can't explain these feelings
these feelings I've never felt,

Yet you cannot see
to love your heart is blind,
Trying to get your attention
your heart I cannot find,

These many years I've waited
but I cannot be found,
To you I don't exist
and you think I'm not around,

I can't take it any longer
and it's all because of you,
Though you looked right through me
my love was always true,

Why can't you see me?
I'm right in front of your eyes,
Ever since that awful night
these problems began to arise,

I don't understand
everything seemed fine,
I was only yours
and you were only mine,

You told me that you loved me
you said you'd always care,
But now that time is over
and it really isn't fair,

I didn't want to leave
with you I could've stayed,
I tried to stay awake
but you only seemed to fade,

Even though I don't exist
I hear the things you say,
You say that you still love me
and then you drift away,

And only in that moment
when all the world is gone,
You see my face one last time
before the morning dawn.
