An overwhelming feeling consuming my soul
Is one I'm unable to grasp from you
I wish to cry out but will lose if I do so
So I silently watch you fade away
It's impossible to win either way I go
I know I will lose you no matter my choice
My entire being, my entire soul
Wishes that you could feel my pain
Maybe then I would earn your sympathy
I would do so to keep you closer to me
These feelings I've tried to keep at bay
Break the lock on the door they are hidden behind
One day I pray when the lock breaks again
That you would be standing behind that door
But wishful thinking only leads to sorrow
A burden for now I cannot bear
So slowly, continuously, a small part of me dies
A void irreplacable saved solely for you
While I silently watch you fade away
Defeated by despair, as you fade away
