I have been living in the shadows
Taking the wrong path
Foreseeing what could happen
But odds were just math.
I have nothing left after
People have walked away
Never did I shed a tear
Nor did I ask them to stay.
I let those people flee
They wanted to find themselves
I always turned my back
Put the pieces of my heart on shelves.
The place is getting empty
The lights are burning slowly out
My soul and heart feel broken,
I am now full of more self-doubt.
For the first time in my life
I start to walk away
I turn around; waiting. But
No one will ask me to stay.
Karma has made it's mark,
I realize I should have told it all
But it is now too late.
Finally my tear drops will fall.
