How can I live when my life was you

How did I live when my life wasn't you?

I've forgotten how to

Did I ever know?

Never lived a life that wasn't you

I thought I would always have you to be a father to

Because 'he' was not a father

But I didn't care

It made me strong it made me better it made me worthwhile

And your love was more then enough

Help me Sammy

I'm drowning in the dark

There's nothing keeping me in the light

My body is stone cold, hard

Immune to touch

No touch but yours could re-awaken my dead flesh

You're the only one who knows me

Always distant

Cant get hurt if no one touches me

No one sees me

I'm not here at all if you don't see me

Because no one else will, they see the mask I hide behind

They see the façade that keeps me safe in my loneliness

If I cant have you, then I have nothing

So I will work till I have you in my arms again

Or until the job takes me out of one dark into another
