I'm not shutting YOU OUT, I'm shutting ME IN.

I waited through the dark night for you, and when the grey dawn broke, I shut out the world to sleep away the day, alone.

Without your touch my life is frozen.

I wish only to feel your touch across the void, this eternal empty distance that separates us.

The night is my friend,
The dark is my ally,
And the stars are the only thing I trust.

Too tired to sleep.
Too sad to weep,
Alone, without you, I am nothing.

I'd drive an iron stake through my heart,
If it would kill these feelings for you,
No mortal wound could cause more pain than your words; "I do not love you."

It's two in the morning,
I can't sleep again,
I'm thinking of you,
When will this end?

Behind the black make-up and the shadowed eyes,
I'm just a girl trying hard not to cry.

Let not my words be found by unkind eyes,
Let none know the pain that's in my heart,
And may the sadness never touch others as it has touched me.
