Do you ever want to just curl up to die


Or blast sad songs and sit down to cry


Get out of your shoes, out of your mind


And leave everything, everything behind



 

The way of the world, the sadness and pain


The ache in your heart you can't possibly explain


The tears in her eyes, sliding down her cheek


Wipe it away as you join in her grief



 

Find a steep cliff, stare out at the sea


Wishing to sprout wings, wishing to be free


Sit down and sob, let it all out


Get rid of the poisonous sadness and doubt



 

But there’s a hole in your heart, a hole you can’t fill


A hole that you know you never can or will


A fracture, a crack, a jagged white scar


Over where your heart used to be, where you are



 

Breathing, alive, but not seeing the world around


Immersed in the memories of a far-away town


A place to be happy, a place now long gone


Replaced by the hate of the coming dawn



 

No desires left known, no secrets to tell


Those childish ambitions; away they fell


Like a black rose's petal falling down to the dirt


The tears of the fallen staining your shirt



 

Giving up, you can’t live in your past


Emerge from your hiding place at long last


If only to disappear again into the dark


The trail you leave as your mind embarks



 

I'll remember you always as the one that I love


The one who was always there for me


You're the one who lived solely in her past


The one who's life was in memory
