Lament

You ran like a thief

And you stole all of me, all of me

You stabbed and you fleed

Left me here to bleed, here to bleed

You promised the world then you burned like the sun

But I thrived on your warmth, now I’m frozen and numb

How was I so wrong? Are you not the one?

I built you a house, but you never came home

And now that you’re gone, and I’m alone

The colors all fade and my world is cold

You spoke of your love like there might’ve been hope

But you sank like a stone when I thought you would float

You chose to desert when it’d hurt me the most

I can’t let you go, when I live with your ghost

But now that you’re gone, all there’s to say,

Is so long

It’s frighteningly calm,

But there was never a storm

You were just here, then you were gone

And after so long

You were my reason for breathing

And now I’m just lost

And now that you’re gone, and I’m alone

The colors all fade and my world is cold

You spoke of your love like there might’ve been hope

But you sank like a stone when I thought you would float

You chose to desert when it’d hurt me the most

I can’t let you go, when I live with your ghost

But now that you’re gone, all there’s to say,

Is so long

I can’t mend my soul if I cant let you go and

And I can’t let you go, when I’m clinging to hope

And I can’t say goodbye when I’m always alone and

I can’t mend my soul when it’s utterly broken

Now all that I am, and all I believed

Came tumbling down, ripped apart at the seams

You spoke of your love but there never was hope

When you speak your lies now I hope that you choke

I’m hopeful in time, I won’t have to lie

When I say, “believe me without you I’m fine”

And now that you’re gone all there’s to say

Is so long
