"Lost" - 6 April 2005
the pain gripes us,
and the sorrow
wells up within us,
'til
beyond tomorrow.
he's gone, he's gone, he's gone,
and he's
never coming back...
we never thought we'd lose you,
and now
you we do lack.
the tears come and
the tears fall,
like
pounding breakers
against cliff wall.
I'll catch her
fists
before they bleed,
I'll hold her
when it's you she
needs.
we'll do our best,
we'll do whatever we can,
we'll
hold back the tears,
we'll hold onto hands.
I lost
myself
when we lost you;
but she lost everything,
lost
dreams soon true.
the sun will rise
on the morrow,
and
I'll hold back
and hide my sorrow.
I'll stand
straight,
I'll hold strong;
I'll hold up the others
as
necessary and long.
but in secret I'm crying,
in secret I'm
scared,
all alone I'm feeling
what they have all shared.
in
secret I'm lost,
and I want you here,
'cause you're enough
to
rid me of fear.
without you I'm nothing,
gone, all
alone,
hidden invisible,
and without a home.
I'm naught
but a whisper
unheard and afraid;
with none at my side,
I'll
eventually fade.
