Speak Of Sorrow

Since when did I call misery friend?
Forever trapped in-between
A ghost in the mirror and feeling myself again
As if I can’t comprehend, is life without meaning
Or am I meaningless?

It takes and takes, as it eats away
Why must it take from you
Why can’t it just take from me?
A burden shared, we must face it together
But now the fires gone out, there’s no flame to save us
These thoughts, they never subside
Harsh truths, ever-growing and growing inside
I swear I've fought, I swear I've truly tried
But all I see above is darkened skies

Won’t somebody show me

Show me how to move on, show me how to forget
The ache that lives inside my heart
It’s been there ever since you left
I need a sense of closure, I just need you to see
That I would give up everything
Just to bring you back, bring you back to me
I try to speak up but my words escape me

I'm beginning to think that my demons are heaven sent
Is this the end?

'Cause the pages of this book are burning
I’ve made so many mistakes
Too many to bury them deep in the past
The weight of these words
May as well be the weight of the world
These worn out sheets speak of the life I lead

The chapters change, but the stories stay the same
You went with the sunshine, left me with the rain

Solitude, show me the way
You can’t call on a saviour
Who needs to be saved
