As I'm left whispering to myself
the words I need to hear.
There's still meaning in forever,
although the message is not as clear.
No more safety in religion
when confronted with the fear
that no one will remember me
when I am gone from here.
I've kissed the feet of God,
stroked a lover's hair,
but in the end everything comes back to
all we've never shared.
Have I left you anything
your heart longs to feel
or am I wasted in my wanting,
believing we were real.
One tear,
is this the sum of my existence
falling softly to the floor.
In an ocean
of so many dying dreams
did you even know
that it was you
I was crying for ?
the words I need to hear.
