What remains after the pain is gone? When you live your life moment to moment When the only life you know in anger and loss When it is all gone to dust Then what is left in your chest? What lodges where your now broken heart once was? When the agony has gone What is that gives you that empty feeling That hunger you cannot quite quench Not food nor drink can fill it It isn't a space it is the absence of a space A void an infinate vaccuum that cannot be filled So the emptiness spreads and finds words It takes you all of you Makes you into itself I bitter taste gets in your mouth And the world turns infinatly dark They lied to me to us They said i would heal They said it would go But it never goes Once it is yours It stays with you always It fades from memory But never really leaves One memory brings it back One hopeless act And it will sit Just behind your eyes And remind you I am here and i'll be with you Always So won't you sing me a rainbow Josie roll me a song |
