Lost Love

Seconds tick away, each enduring each
and minutes last forever, and hours don't exist
heavy heart and mournful soul
and salty tears of sadness fall
and no-one can make the morning come round again but you

Memories devoured by a moment of today
and moods of blackness melt everything away
and crying and staring into the empty places in my heart
and only you can reach into my very soul

And I don't know why it's you that reaches deep
and pulls the very core of me away
from everything I have ever loved and known
and that's why dying seems the safest way to fall
and leaving everything means that I'm leaving all
because nothing can fill the emptiness I feel
and nothing will ever be the same
because none of it was ever very real
