Am I a runner or a fighter? Truly a dilemma Stay and fight and risk destruction Run away and never know what might have been So tired of fighting myself and my circumstances Not knowing how much longer I can wait for a change Hoping for something that seems to be fading While certain pain lurks, waiting to pounce Letting go, yeah I don't do that well I can talk the talk but when it comes to my heart I fail miserably to achieve the walk So here I sit again, alone and broken All the begging, threatening, praying Wasted on the deaf ears of addiction Ultimatums avail me nothing Simply push this further away Wasted time and tears overwhelm me My words speak of strength and independence Yet my heart cries in denial at the indifference And still I wait, for what? Changes I made to better myself Have created a distance between us I can’t go back to meet you there You won’t come up to meet me here So we are at an impasse And I fear that the path you travel Will destroy you forever Taking your life and light from this world And with that tragic loss All I once dreamed of All I once prayed for Will be forever destroyed along with you If the words will not come |
