A World Away (Part Two)

Tonight is dragging along
I sit waiting, wishing
Trying to hold strong
But inside, I know you’re gone

And I know it’s my tears
That broke this apart
You couldn’t calm my fears
Even after all these years

And even though
Inside I see your gone
My heart doesn’t want to let go
Oh, if only I could let you know

But my wounds when I use that blade
I know now I was cutting you too
And I’m sorry for the mess I made
But god, how I wish you’d stayed

I don’t mean to make a pity call
But seems I can sink no lower
And who will catch me when I fall?
Do you still love me at all?

I miss your arms so secure
I miss your love, devotion
I miss having something so pure
For this pain you’re my only cure

And as I sit staring at my phone
My mind informs my heart
That I’m now on my own
Left to face my fears alone

A drink, a blade, a pill or two
Nothing fills the hole inside
Cos it’s reserved only for you
I don’t want anyone new

Cos my love was only for your heart
And now that’s gone
My whole life has fallen apart
Right how it was at the start

I’m sorry but I can’t go on
If I have no love
And so I you see I’m not strong
So tomorrow, my soul will be gone.
