Time elapses so slow

Now I sit and watch you go

It feels like a lifetime ago I met you

Now I sit watching you leave like you do

Too deep in sorrow

To run after you

Not looking for tomorrow

And all the heartache it brings

Hiding in the shell I created

Falling out of touch with life

Daring not to care this way again

Becoming a hollow structure of a person

The rain falls hard on the ground

And my soul cries out for you

But my agonizing voice is stopped

By the wall you build between us

Now I search for perfect insanity

And learning to love my misery

Suffering a death within a life

Thriving on a disastrous love
