Everywhere I turn, I see your face
No matter what I do, you are there
Every thought somehow leads to you
I walk faster, trying to escape your shadow

Your haunting presence
The face I love, that won’t leave me alone
That has to be with me every moment of the day
Everyday of my life

You are the beginning and the end
The light and dark
Happiness and sadness
I will never escape

I’m condemned for an unforgivable crime
You will not, can not let it go
Yet you say it’s not my fault
That I shouldn’t blame myself

Things will be the same you said
But I can already feel the difference
The change in your words, your voice
And the loss of your touch

It is almost too much to bear
I go through the motions,
Not really feeling
Not really caring

The sun hides in a dark and twisted game
Stabbing at my heart at every opportunity
Tearing at the scars
Making them bleed anew.

Screaming
Unheard
I know that the only thing that will heal me
Is your love

Something I will never have again
