In the struggle of my life
I forgot to say I love you
In the struggle of my life
I forgot to goodbye
Everyone around me
Every voice inside my head
Every single time I speak
There is nothing but a cry…
——–
Lost in separation
By this madness that engulfs me
Lost in separation
When I catch a stranger’s eye
Caught between the here and there
Forgetting how to breathe
In this, a living nightmare
Am I forsaken by and by
———
Indiscreetly, I loosed my grip
Soured by inadequacy
Indiscreetly, I loosed my hold
As the shadows over through me
For consolation, there is nigh
Broken soul like dried up bones
A final kiss I was denied
This shallow grave my home
This has an Edgar Alan Poe feel to it.
