Tell me how to keep you
Here by my side.
Tell me what I have to do
To never say goodbye.
Because the truth is
That it always ends the same for me.
My heart is unguarded
And loves freely.
All my trust
And all my compassion
Is never enough.
What am I missing?
I pretend to brush it off
And let you think it's okay
Because I love you.
But the pain I feel is real to me.
It never leaves,
So I do the only thing I can.
I shut the world out
And my heart becomes numb.
I push away all joy
Because it all reminds me of you.
And settle back into the comfort
Of my depressed mind.
But deep down I crave something
That I've never had.
Unconditional love from the one
Who always had my back.
He made me one promise
That he couldn't keep.
That he would never leave me
As long as my heart beat for him.
When did a promise lose meaning?
For me, it was that day.
But you were there for me
And in your arms I began to heal.
Is it so hard to believe
That I love you like I do?
So please don't ever leave,
I owe so much to you.
~Karena~
