In dreaming we are complete Yet dreams bring me pain Shards of light through the dark That illuminate the past It feels so real it hurts And I can think of nothing more But you, your face, your words Even though they aren’t real Emptiness fills my heart Where once you used to live My pain it burns my life I have nothing more to give Without you I feel hollow I cannot love at all It feels like it’s all ending I’m on borrowed time Mediocrity rules my life What has become of me? A small flickering flame Against the dark wind Fragile and lost in the night I can’t work out how to fix it To stay bright, stay alive Stay me But time treads on weary tracks Life rumbles on and on Pain is dulled Along with my ability to care And I go on regardless I have always been here I will always be here Alone
