Walking with you
Through the grass
Just for a few
Before you pass

Though the sun's rays
I said I'd stay strong
Squinting eyes of tears
We only have so long

Would it be better
Not knowing you were to go
But it's too late
I already know

So now we walk
Last moments together
I'll be okay
You can't stay forever

But deep in your eyes
I watch them turn grey
Gripping your hands
As they slip away

Yeah, I'm fine
I will always tell you
Never believe me
It's the only lie that's true

I'm surrounded by light
I try to keep it on
But up in here
It's already off, it's gone

I never knew
It'd be this hard
Every time I'm alone
The wound is etched and scarred

I wish I could tell you
I don't think you know
The rip, it tears
Every time you go

I reach out
I'll go above and beyond
But it only pierces deeper
When you don't respond

But don't worry
No burden to you
This isn't your problem
I just wish you knew

For now, I keep my hands out
I'm capable of keeping control
Arms stretched fingers spread palms up
Waiting to be grabbed, by just one soul

But the longer I wait
The older time grows
I. Keep. Sinking. Down.
Where insanity shows
