Walking alone
Letting the darkness take me away
I’m off to see yesterday
To laugh at myself

If you’d just cared
I wouldn’t have dared
To walk away
Forget today

I’m numbed to the outside
Inside I’m warm
And I don’t care
I’m off to the other side
I’ll meet you there

You can cry at my windows
Your tears will run down the glass
And I can see you
But you’ve forced me not to care
So I’ll sit and leave you there

You can be the one to watch
From the outside
And I’ll finally be inside
Where I was always locked out
By you

I’d have cared if you’d let me
I’d have loved if you hadn’t made me
Turn to hate
Turn away from my beliefs
My world
My sanity.

small insignificant useless me

rm711,
I loved the "I'm off to yesterday line."

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown
