With darkness all around you
Where do you go,
What do you do?
Can you fight this darkness?
Do you find your nights
Full of sleeplessness?
When will it all
Make sense again?
You fight and fight
But you never win.
Look out now,
It's closing in.
It's time to jump
Will you sink or swim?
If only there were
Some way out.
Without a tear
Without a pout.
It's not your heart
I'm afraid of breaking.
I already know
I'll be the one left aching.
So why won't I let you
Walk away from me?
Because my heart is locked?
And you have the only key?
I wish I knew
What to do to make
This end just right.
But it seems all I can do
Is make us fight.
I've suffocated
And smothered you.
Changed you from the boy
That I once knew.
I've tried to walk away
So many times.
But you bind me to you
And it's me that pines.
You don't love me
You don't know how.
Please don't follow
I'm leaving now
Please don't follow
It's not allowed.
