I need to kiss you
It�s driving me insane
Slowly and painfully
I�m wilting here
All because of you
Because your lips have long passed mine
Left me here alone
In the shadows of my soul
Alone and behind
I�m stuck within my mind
No escapes
No trap doors
Only this pain
Wilting me away
Delicate beauty
Causing this unstoppable death
Wasted
My lonely lips lie bare and cold
Dissatisfied
Wet and waiting
For you
What is to come?
Besides the pain
I want you running
Rushing
Crawling back inside these wounds upon me
Now that you�re gone
I can�t go on
Don�t you see?
You are the life in me
It all lies within my eyes
Inside these two, stagnant pools
Are the answers you are seeking
If you'd only take the time to notice I�m here
Here in love with you
Stop and smell the roses
The roses that no longer smell so sweet
So wilted and dry
Burned inside every petal
From the core to the tips
The dripping crimson flows forth
Pouring out of every thorn
Look at the tears that stream from this river I've cried
All because of you
Because you walked away
I am left here
Eternally waiting for what won�t return
Back
