idiot 2
by jeremy cannon
I miss you, missing you in the room,
I need you, needing you to chase away the gloom.
The sun keeps shining but my faith is not,
what I am is in an idiot.
Your body was a shadow off the light,
it danced, danced in a loving praise.
Now that the light has dimmed out,
it's your shadow I have to chase.
But everything is gone, but mostly you.
I'm not just an idiot, a coward, a clown, a fool.
I miss you, missing you in the room,
I need you, needing you to chase away the gloom.
The sun keeps shining but my faith is not,
what I am is in an idiot.
Clouds hover above me,
and rain forces me to shake.
No matter the weather,
I've made the world's biggest mistake.
You walk by, I want to cry,
all my hope dies, one tear shy...
Of breaking down, I'm an idiot.
I miss you, missing you in the room,
I need you, needing you to chase away the gloom.
The sun keeps shining but my faith is not,
what I am is in an idiot.
