Absence

Recall back to the day

The same day that you walked away

Turned your back and left me here

Left without a fucking trace

Mark these words that I speak to you

Leaving killed my faith in you

I still wonder if you sleep

Knowing what you put me through

Holding onto what's left of you

Unable to let go of the old you

I'll do my best, to bury what you meant to me

I've done my time

Trying to, forget you and it's taken its toll on me

I know i'm not perfect, but at least I was always there for you

Let those around you down, and now you watch, so far removed you can barely hear a sound

A true reflection on what I think of you now

So dark are these skies, I'll still walk head held high

You're more alone than I, so here's to you giving up

All the things I wish I could have said

Tell you what I truly think

Still I know it won't change

A fucking thing

An absence within

I'll paint a picture of happier days just too get me by

I'll live to prove that I'm stronger after what you put me through

I thought I knew you
