i have never believed in simply letting go
did that once, i'm miserable from head to toe
if you love a person with all your soul
why must you give up and suffer the fall?

my heart and mind wage their unending war
it is i, an unwilling victim that suffers thus far
it's just not fair, i loved you like no other
you're the breath of life in my heart's ether

i have long for a beloved such as you are
to have and hold 'til my heart beats no far
just as i can't imagine how i survived the past
i can't imagine a future without your love and trust

but now i found myself alone and deserted
sulking on the corner feeling much defeated
the moon covered in a veil to show her sentiments
and the stars so gloom as though in torment

how am i to go on now if you take away my love?
and how am i to walk away if you are all i have?
the world has given me a burden so big to bear
that my emotions will soon have my heart to tear

but i don't have a choice in this heart's matter
you gave me but one last option, in it i'm fettered
i can't ignore your eyes that pleads me to let go
i'll leave then and have my wounded heart in tow
