I reach for you...
and you're not there.
I reach for you...
and you push me away.
I reach for you...
and you try to give me someone else.
I reach for you...
and you're too busy.
I reach for you...
and you can't be bothered.
I reach for you...
to talk and you can't listen.
I reach for you...
time and again to no avail.
I reach for you...
any time of day and night, but you're nowhere around.
I reach for you...
and you're more dead than Anthony.
I reach for you...
and it leaves me feeling hollow as I get your hologram.
I reach for you...
time and again, but it never gets me anywhere.
I reach for you...
and you can't see.
I reach for you...
and you can't hear.
I reach for you...
and you don't feel.
I reach for you...
and you don't touch my hand or heart or console me.
I reach for you...
and you're not around.
I reach for you...
and I come unbound.
I reach for you...
and it's just me I see because you've left me in your dust.
I reach for you...
and what was a friend is now a stranger.
