Times we spent cheating and lying,

Wondering when we would be back by your side again,

Hoping and praying to get through the day,

I need your attention to see through the fray.



It's night again all the time,

Shadows are lurking but I can't find mine,

People look at me as they flood through the door,

I need your attention not theirs anymore.



And the light from the candle goes dim,

as I slip deeper down from the brim.



The people are fading away,

As I slip into colours then ten shades of grey,

If I don't last this one tell them when I've gone,

That playing with you was incredible fun
