Whatever the Cost

Where are you now
Oh beautiful one?
I'm falling out of line
And reaching for the gun

Dark consumes my heart
My eyes remained stained
With pictures of you
That stay unexplained

I want you back
But that's just a hope
That rips from my head
And forces me to cope

My brain feels crushed
My heart feels hollow
In a land of tears
I must wallow

Do my lungs still work?
I constantly gasp for air
So I reach out for you
But you aren't there

You may be gone
All may seem lost
But I'll hold onto you forever
Whatever the cost
