Preface
He controled me; consumed me. Every thought, every action had him in consideration. I could never let him go, it was impossible. I heard the intro of the piano and I made my decent down the long spiraling stairs.
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
The crowd fell silent. All eyes were on me. I continued down the stairs.
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus:]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus]
Ireached the bottom of the stairs and let the tears freely flow down my cheeks. I sat on the last stair and looked up above me.
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
[Chorus]
The crowd started cheering but I couldn't take the pain. I looked to my bandmates and saw pity and sorrow. I started walking back up the spiral staircase as the outro started.
