Carrying On
There’s a hemorrhage of thoughts and memories killing me each day
Why won’t you just leave me alone
so that maybe I could live today?
Not a day passes by when you’re not on my mind
How can I carry on
when you’re stealing all my time?
I lie awake trying to sleep
but you keep coming up to me
Every time I close my eyes
I know you’re the only thing I’ll see
Why can’t the memories leave
just like you left me?
It’s driving me insane
each and every day
They’re causing me such pain
causing such dismay
I wish that they would leave
That my mind would be mine again
Images of you keep dancing in my head
They taunt me
They haunt me
They make me think of death
It’s burning in my blood
angering me as time goes on
I’m angry at the world
most of all myself
for letting it get to me
A virus in my head
killing all that’s good
A disease in my brain
leaving me ashamed
I am alone
