And I missed the way
You managed to breathe life
Into mine
And I miss the way
You silenced my screams
And I miss the way
You tore life from me
And shattered it into three
Taking the only parts
That truly belonged to me
And I miss the fucking way
I stayed by your side
Every god damn night
And tried to make sense
Of what's right
And what's mine
I miss the way
I saw light in your eyes
And heard the way
You smiled
At me from behind
And how you managed to keep
Me wanting you to be all mine
And how we became friends
So god damn easily
But I can't say I missed
When you tore us
Into two
And make me keep my distance
From you
When all I want to do
Is be right next to you
But I can say I miss the way
I knew who I was writing too
It's like my heart
Knows something my brain doesn't want to
Who are you
And what does my heart need from you?
And why am I so deprived
When I can't feel your eyes
And why can't I feel
Your need from me
Was is this game
And why does my heart ache
From an unanswered pain
I don't even know your name
But somehow you manage
To keep my little bit of sane
Locked up and safe
Out of the way
Who are you?
And why do I want to be right next to you?
