85. You're All I've Got

As I chase your shadow
Trying to catch emptiness
Between my fingers

It becomes blatantly obvious
That I cannot live without you
You are the light in my life

You’re all I’ve got
In a sense
You saved me from my self

But how many more times
Are you willing
To do it?

Practiced conversations
Pass my lips
And I hear the answer from yours

No longer will I have
To suffer
And bring you down with me

You were the reason I stopped
Because I didn’t want you
To lose someone twice

Day after day
We go through
The motions

But what is it for?
For this life is too hard
And I want to leave it

But my need to stay with you
Is stronger
Keep hold of me

I dream about you
Do you dream
About me?

The world continues to spin
But mine comes crashing down
When you’re away

Please

You’re all I have
