The emptiness that I feel
Deep down inside
A pain so very real
It just won't die
An aching of the heart
Which pierces the soul
From the very start
I could feel the deep dark hole
Now it slowly grows
Oh, so much much deeper
No-one ever really knows
Why I've become a weeper
For the darkness in my heart
Has eclipsed all other emotion
And the monster that has torn me apart
Can't be killed with and potion
The longer that I wait
To see you wonderful face
Sitting here so lost
I have come to lose my place
Torn apart from the world
I no longer see me there
The picture is all blurred
But, does anyone really care?
Of course not
They're engrossed
In their thoughts
And the ones they love the most
So, I will continue to stand
All alone in a place
Where no-one gives a hand
Or shows a friendly face
I am back now
Where i started
With the know-how
Of when we parted
I will miss you
Now and forever
I will always be true
Forget you...I will never.
