Absence

I can feel my absence is crushing you inside I can hear the pain in all the words you say They cut so deep the wounds don't even bleed Blinded by resentment that tortures me Can't bear the pain I have put you through As I fear for the beast that cripples you Stolen away like a thief in the night Broken each day Try to forget but it won't go away Another empty minute an endless stream of days The time that never seems to move is driving me insane Another passing hour a sentence I disdain Begging the faceless shadows to release me from this place Can't bear the pain I have put you through As I fear for the beast that cripples you Stolen away like a thief in the night Broken each day Try to forget but it won't go away The time has come for me to be set free Anxiety it overtakes me I'm paralyzed right through The distance in between our fate is my never-ending doom Because I'm stolen away like a thief in the night Because I'm broken each day Try to forget but it won't go away
