Everything is fuzzy
Coming through in waves
Sleep escapes me once again
On this starry night
I close my eyes and there you are
Haunting me, taunting me
Wherever I go.
I thought you were perfect
In everything you are
In everything you do
Oh boy how I was fooled
No longer do you seem perfect
No longer do I smile
I use to sleep
With sweet dreams,
Awake to sunshine and thoughts of you
Now here I am
Laying awake in the dark
My life is now darkness
You are now a mystery to me
Nothing is set in stone
Like it used to be
I lay in bed each night
Memories flooding my mind
You come and go as you please
Always haunting me
No longer do the stars shine
No longer does the sun raise in the morning light
My vision goes blurry
No longer do I see straight
I feel weak
Sleep still escapes me
Close my eyes
And there you are
Gracing me with your presence
How I wish you were near
Instead of having you
Haunt me and taunt me
I just want to scream
Leave me alone!!!!
No longer can I deal with it
The pain has become too much
Everything I do
Is just now a blur
From every step I take
To every word I say
Every action I create
Everything is fuzzy
It now only comes in waves
Sleepless nights
And starless gaze
Lay down and close my eyes
And there you are once again
Haunting me, taunting me
Wherever I go
So tell me now
Do you want in?
Or do you want out-
Out of my life completely?
Because I ask if you leave
Then just leave
No longer can I handle
Having you linger here
Unless I can have you near.
No more sleep
No more dreams
No more sunshine
And no more stars
Everything is dark
You now haunt me and taunt me
Dreams are now nightmares
And the sun is eclipsed
Blackness is what I see
Pain is what I feel
You linger here
Haunting me
And taunting me
With who you are and what you are
I had enough
Now I just want to scream
Leave me alone!!!
Leave my life for good
Or stay and show me
That perfect boy
I once thought you were
In a distant time
In a distant place far from here
Everything is fuzzy
My vision is blurred
You are now a ghost
Lightly touching my skin
You’re touch in but a ghost upon my skin
Sleep escapes me once aga
On this starry, black night
I lay back, close my eyes
There you are once again
Haunting me, taunting me
Wherever I go.
