When I close my eyes all I see are visions of you

And when I open my eyes

your absence holds me down

I try but I can't shake myself loose

I can't command my brain

All I do is shrink and think of one thing

I'm sitting alone beside me

I'm digging a hole inside myself



All I want is the place I think I've found

When I look into your eyes

All I know is that I'm tired of the world around me

Please don't ignore me



Dedicated, here I am thinking of you

with everything within me

You'll never see me, never feel me

never know these thoughts of mine

In my mind you're always there, always smiling

Always reaching out to me

The days go on with heartache,

the days go on with emptiness



All I want is to somehow matter to you

Even if all else rejects me

All I know is that I'm hammered by the world

around me

Please don't destroy me



I burn down time trying to find a way

to get through to you

I'm standing in line for a hand out

that will never come but still

I don't care

Feeling like, looking like -naked

Here is everything I am

Laid out exposed wide eyed unable to forget you
