You left me, standing on that edge
\nLooking as I fall, watching life flash by<\/p>\n

You left me, without a word to hang on to
\nWithout my life in tow, without my pride<\/p>\n

You just left me, not a second ago
\nWith a “we’ll talk soon, goodnight”<\/p>\n

You left me, not long enough ago
\nThis didn’t happen, won’t let you go tonight<\/p>\n

I see your face, so pale inside there
\nI tried to help you, but you didn’t care
\nMy tears flowed forth, like a river unknown
\nMy life seems empty, you’re all I’ve known<\/p>\n

I remember, the last thing that you said
\nYou said you love me, and you were going to bed<\/p>\n

I remember the last thought I had
\nThose damn words, I still feel I’m too mad<\/p>\n

I remember the vision in my head
\nThe thought I had of you, the thought I had is dead<\/p>\n

I remember the way you left me that night
\nI’ll talk to you soon, you were too weak to fight<\/p>\n

I know now, that this is how it ends
\nA sudden tragedy, the soul that never mends<\/p>\n

I know now, that the eyes close once again
\nThat I never understood, the way you loved me, my friend.<\/p>\n

I know now, that this is how it’ll be
\nI’m lost and scared without you, as you are without me<\/p>\n

I know now, that soon enough I’ll see you
\nReunited once again, and then the thought is through<\/p>\n

So now here I am, wandering through the hallway
\nI don’t know where to go, or how I got here<\/p>\n

And now here I am, confused in my own head
\nI know that I’ll find you, because you always care<\/p>\n

Now here I am, wandering through your world
\nTrying to reunite with you, trying to find a way<\/p>\n

Now here I am, I took myself to be with you
\nI couldn’t be without you, even that one day<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
