This river flows, a river of blue
Sad and lonely, full of longing
I sit at its bank, looking through
I see my reflection, without you
Why must it always be
That everything reminds me?
Reminds me that I'm no longer yours
Every step leads to another place
I place I was with you
Misery is my new name
After you, what I became
And if you were to take me back
I would run back to you
Without second thought
You were my first and only love
My best friend, all that I've got
But your presence crumbled before me
Leaving me broken and lonely
Lost with nowhere and no one to go to
Lost because I am without you
This reflection I see
Is not of me
At least not who
I used to be
Eyes hollow
Like those of a corpse
Drenched in sorrow
With no remorse
Is this what you've left me to become?
One with the earth and all its scum
Torn to pieces
Unable to find myself
With no heart to feel
Nothing left of me at all
You've robbed me of
My heart, my mind, my smile
You've robbed me of the innocence
Withina child
And what you have taken
Can never be returned
It remains a ghost
Of whatI have learned
Because of you
Never can I trust another soul
Nevercan I open myself up again
To a world so cold
And never again will I love
The same that I do
How can I ever love someone
The way I loved you?
