Fading Light

Your memory haunts my mind
Interwoven at my core
I feel a mortal wound inside
Such a pain can't be ignored

I watched the light of my life fade away
I felt the darkness consume my everything
The future I envisioned was not the one to come
The path I walked had been cut off, no choice but to succumb

All hope was
Extinguished
The sun was blotted out

All pleasure
Relinquished
A victim to my doubts

Oh how I longed to
Go back to reclaim what was lost
The mental silence
The comfort that your presence brought

I had to let go
And find a way to carry on
All that I wanted
Was to find the place where I belong

When it came to an end, I felt all hope was lost
I begged for answers as my world turned to dust
How could I go on without you in my life
There must be some way to restore the light inside

Oh how I longed to
Go back to reclaim what was lost
The mental silence
The comfort that your presence brought

I had to let go
And find a way to carry on
All that I wanted
Was to find the place where I belong

But I'd rather be alone
than have someone who pretended to care

I'm better off alone
Then a victim to such lies
My life is now my own
Free from my dark demise

Oh how I longed to
Go back to reclaim what was lost
The mental silence
The comfort that your presence brought

I had to let go
And find a way to carry on
All that I wanted
Was to find the place where I belong
