I cried myself to sleep again last night,
I crushed your pillow to me tight.
I tried not to think about you being gone,
I simply had to wonder if I was going to move on.
I got up today and couldn’t deal with anyone,
So I just stayed in bed and ignored the shining sun.
People are getting worried, they wont’ leave me alone,
If I was positive you’d never call, I’d unplug the phone.

A giant hole was ripped into my chest it seems,
And somehow your pillow warded off bad dreams.
Instead I dreamed of you all night long,
It was nice to pretend that nothing’s wrong.
I’ve been crying off and on all day,
But I’m trying to fake happiness anyway.
I’m not okay, so don’t bother to ask,
Just let me keep on wearing a smiling mask.

I’m trying hard not to think of you,
But I’m failing horribly at that, too.
Everything reminds me of what I’ve lost,
I have to live with my actions, and now, also, my cost.
I can’t breath for the pain in my heart,
I can’t move on, I don’t know where to start.
You’re not here anymore, so there’s no one to lean on,
My heart’s disappeared, my strength has withdrawn.

I cried myself to sleep again last night,
Wishing you were there to hold me tight…

Those who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music.
