Lonely Sacrifice

I finally understand

Why those lyrics are filled

With so much pain

And why

When I look out the window

All I expect is rain

When I was little

I always wondered

About my first heartbreak

But never would I have thought

It'd be this way for you or me

The countless times

You have ran through my head

And the tears that I have shed

I build my life around you

On you

For you

I climb so high only to fall

And all I see

Is you looking at me

As my body shatters

Like a porcelain doll

I am swimming and shouting

Calling for your help

But you're too far to hear

As the water swallows me

And all my fear

Can't you see

I'd do anything for you and me

But no

The heat is blinding you

As I burn within

I fight to find a way out

I shout and I shout

Begging you to help me out

But my cries become a nuisance

My shrieks a pain

As the cinders burn me away

My fingernails are bloody

As I try to climb the walls

And the only word to pass my lips Isn't for me at all

I say one word

As I try to climb out of this hell

That I'm in

One word for you and that is to

Run

Run away from here

So you now longer have to see

Run away from me

Because we can no longer be

Yes I love you

This is true indeed

But since I love you

I must set you free

Because the worst thing for me

Is if I had to see

My nightmares coming true

Of me hurting you

So run

Run away from me

The fire has me

It has twisted me

Run

Before I burn you too

I will turn to ash

Then to dust

As the wind carries me away

As I tumble and as I fall

I will still try to call for you

But you are gone

You have ran

And I will be alone again

As I settle on the sand

I will let the waves take me

I will not fight

And I will welcome death

When it is in sight

As I look up at my once blue sky

My last thought will be of you

And how I never got to say

Goodbye

I love you
