The Sound

Evening fell onto this lonely city,
That I was in, I will never forget how I felt that night I left,
Lost and alone, bittersweet my heart
as i drove and drove, I couldnt see the road for the tears

As the night-time shadows creep.
You and I were far apart,
This emptiness keeps me from my sleep.
You showed me what was important to you, and it wasn't me.

Why has time taken you from me?
All the yesterdays seems so wasted.
Calling out my words of pain,
trying to tell you I thought we had so much to love so much to gain.

To think it could have lasted.
Nothing now but regrets and shame.
I tried to tell you what I needed that day.
But the words just didnt come to lips, I wanted you to want me for me.

Your words haunt me still.
Saying I should have told you and things would have changed.
thats not what i wanted.
I feeling so ashamed.

What I wanted - you showed me you didnt want to give.
I didn't want your pitty
All I wanted was your love
I had so much love, I wanted to share it and live.

Why did you ruin what we had?
Your words seems so distorted that day.
I tried to listen to them with care,
and the memories are now all sorted, To me you just didn't seem to care.

The sound, so bittersweet
haunting with its repetitive glue
Holding on, never ceasing
The sound I hear is you

Silence falls on this tiny city,
A sadden silence fills the air.
Mental paintings are all that's left,
I couldn't stay with you there.

Pessimistic voices called to me,
In your own way you showed me you didn't care.
But it was both of us who spoke that day.
Sometimes silence and actions speak louder the words.

The pain traveled both ways,
I had to go, I just couldnt stay
I coudlnt stay where I was not wanted and
The spirit I had that once had soared you broke.

The sound, so bittersweet
haunting with its repetitive glue
Holding on, never ceasing
The sound I hear is you

Chills fall on this windy city,
I am all alone, it is dark.
My eyes ache from non-stop tears,
You had left your mark.

You broke my heart .
Your absence isn't killing the pain,
Where do I go from here?
Do I listen to the sound of a heart breaking,
Or do I die with a fear from not having you near ?

I wanted to tell you when you get back I wont be here.
I have lost yet another battle, you have won.
You wanted to get rid me of,
now thats done.

You didn't even care enought to call
to make sure I was alright after all.
I didnt realize that you really hated me that much,
My only regret was that I had made a certain wish,

I wished and dreamed we could be together.
You said you loved me, but it isn't true.
You showed me what was meant to be.
Now all I have is memories.
