A Torn Pillow and a Slightly Broken Heart

So far all I've thought about is being lonely

I'm beginning to believe the fate that I'll never be in love

One relationship after another and I'm off to bed now

To see a brighter day is forever where my heart will stay

Forever and ever...AMEN





Kill the lights, I'm off to bed

Too much thinking, not enough being said

If I were gone, where now would you be?

Sad and lonely just like me...



No, I'm kidding, just playing around again

I use metaphores just to divert my friends

Make you all think that I'm not ok

Just so I can prove it all over again today...



Where were you

When I needed you the most

Tell me, where were you

When I said I'm looking at the coasts

If I left today

Would it matter at all

When everyone is saying "Bye"

But I'm not even gone for now

I'll just slowly fade away

Just like the days...



So far all I've sung about is being confusing

I'm beginning to believe the belief that I really am

One line after another and I'm almost through now

To wake up to a brighter day is where my head will stay

Forever and ever...AMEN



Turn on the lights, Wake up sleepy head

Too much sleeping, not enough working while I'm in bed

If I were in a coma, where would you be?

Sleeping peacefully just like me...



No, I'm kidding, jsut playing around again

I use these metaphore just to divert my friends

Make you all think I'm still sad today

Just so I can prove it that I'm really ok



Where were you

When I needed you the most

Tell me, where were you

When I said I'm looking at the coasts

If I left today

Would it matter at all

When everyone is saying "Bye"

But I'm not even gone for now

I'll just slowly fade away

Just like the days...



Away they fade..

Away forever and ever...and ever...and ever...

Amen

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this one to be confusing...just because I know the only people that will understand are those who were meant to understand it.  I'll leave this one to your judgement as to what it is about...all I know is I love how I wrote it.
