If You Lose Your Soul
I can’t sleep much anymore,
Only thinking of this crazy world,
Full of turmoil and sorrow.
I don’t want to live like this much more,
Because I sincerely don’t believe,
That my heart can take anymore.
My knees give out without a sign,
Showing my body is falling apart.
It seems to follow the same rhythm,
That streams through my head all day.
My thoughts can hardly match,
Any of the words coming from my mouth.
Speaking to you with full honesty,
Is about the hardest thing I could do.
I want to tell you everything,
Spill out my heart and soul.
As many times as you tell me I should,
My head just can’t react.
You’re falling from me, I see.
Day by day, hour by hour,
You’re simply slipping through my grasp.
I can’t seem to take much more,
My soul is starting to break.
I can’t figure out who I am,
Because these days I’m not the same.
Remember the time I could scream and shout,
And had the world at my fingertips.
Do you remember, now, do you?
“You’ve lost your sense of everything,”
Your soft voice tells me.
And in my head I say, “I know.”
But the words don’t come out that way.
“Tell me who you really are,”
Your eyes tell me subtly.
“I don’t know who that is anymore,
That time has gone,”
I think brutally.
Love me with your all,
And accept who I may be,
And who I may not be,
For one could hardly know.
Forgive me for my mistakes,
And stay by my side.
Don’t leave me when I’m broken hearted,
‘Cause I’m already dead inside.
