Misery

Misplaced memories take their shape
And drown out a perfect world
Only we could create
Lonely waters below the bridge I must cross
But I can never go back
We are on the edge
I am falling now
And when I fall
Where will you be?
In the cold and all alone
Nobody can see we’re holding on
But what are we holding on to?
What use to be just isn’t there
So why are you still here?
I can’t see is it sympathy
A curse that has taken over me
We have withered away
We have fallen apart
I am gone to stay
I have fallen back
But you’re still living in yesterday
And I can’t help the past
To just go away
The tears still fall and you will crawl
Back to me
But I won’t be there
I have tried so hard
I have tried to make you see
What you were doing was affecting me
I gave in time and time again
But you keep messing with me
Now it’s the end
I try to be friends
You pretend every things is okay
Now I can’t stay
I need to get away
I see another man in the distance
But it’s just a shadow of a memory
Given a chance to set me free
So I fly and fly away
Please tell me you understand
Please tell me that again
It doesn’t even matter how hard I’ve tried
It didn’t matter
Because our love has slipped away
The ashes still remain
Blowing through the air
Every time I think back
I can’t want you here
I am through with all your lies
You say you are sorry
And just go on
With all your justifications
I believed you word for word
And I gave into you
But I am cold inside
And the loneliness I fear
The helpless realm I consume
Blocked out the perfect room
The wall to my heart
You bring the pitiful to me
I cry and I cry
But I am glad for me
Because it will soon be the end
To all my misery
