How could you walk away?

 

Without a trace of pain

 

Like a ghost your love has vanished

 

But the spirit of my heart remains

 

 

 

Now I stand alone in the storm

 

And hear my heart a thunder

 

Wishing to scream aloud

 

The clouds are grey I’m under

 

 

 

How you could say you loved me

 

I read over the cards you wrote

 

It just tears away at my heart

 

You disappeared without a note

 

 

 

And I dream of you persistently

 

Your name to me is hallowed

 

You’ve claimed my soul and spirit

 

But my skin is but a shell

 

Empty, dark, hollowed

 

 

 

I scream so loud to the night

 

No one hears my cries

 

In pools of tears and torment

 

My sunshine has been denied

 

 

 

How could you leave me standing here

 

My world is desolate, alone

 

How could my heart hurt so bad

 

The walking wounded has me wounded

 

I am shattered to the bone
