The sunrise sees me try for him
While the sunset sees me cry for him
Two eternities lost themselves in the little moment of despair
My lungs reject all oxygen, can you feel the sorrow in the air?
I break my own heart every night when I look up at the night sky above
Eyes bleed and hearts cry… there are all the stars that you once loved
This world can be a nasty place and this love can be an evil place
Yet it is still the most precious thing I ever had to chase
My love is cruel and my love is true
But my love only ever belonged to you
Why do I feel left out when you laugh tears without me, dear?
Your world is not falling apart like mine is, when you’re not here
Someone left me very early, now I’m scared you’ll do the same
Hear my heart shatter, once there is another name
Hear it shatter, it is such a shame
I got sick from loving you and sick of trying to make you understand
I’d walk with you through hell if you’d just let me hold your hand
I hold onto things that I know are going to be the end of me
I want to be desired, as I desire, I want you to cry and beg for me
I want you to cry, lie and die for me, as I would do for you
In all my melancholy and heartache is loving you all that I can do
