by IdTakeABulletForYou
Didn't wish upon you
But you were my shooting star;
Only got to watch you
As you came here shooting down.
Held you for a moment,
Now I'm not sure what I grip;
Thought you were my future
'til right from my hands you slipped.
--Ground removed from under me;
I'm looking, but I cannot see.
It's like I'm blind without your love
And no one else will be enough.
I followed you into the dark
And let you have your way;
I waited for your touch all night
And on into the day.
As the room grew bright
I saw that I was all alone;
{I gave you everything I could;
there's nothing left to own.}
Maybe I was just a fool
For falling into love with you;
I guess you tricked me really good
By saying that you never would.
I thought it was a dream
But it turned out a mere nightmare;
Thought your heart was in my hand
--turns out it never had been there.
Tell me, what am I to do
Each day that I am without you?
Do tell me how I am to live
Without brushing against your skin?
You've ripped my heart wide open,
You've prepared me for a surgery;
You left me on this table
-- I guess that you never will fix me.
