Forsaken Lyrics

Feel your breath against my hair

Turn around, but you're not there

And yet, I swear

You're always there beside me

In my head, I hear you speak

You call my name but the will is weak

A life alone, yet you live on inside me

Silent screams that shape my dreams

Persist 'til I awaken

A voice that haunts, your spirit taunts

A life that I've forsaken

Unspoken lies, my conscience tries

To put the past behind me

Through broken dawns, I carry on

And hope the truth won't find me

Familiar scent hangs in the air

Passing thoughts that go nowhere

And yet, I swear

You're standing there behind me

In the dark, I hear your cries

And I recall the pain in your eyes

Your life alone

You carried on despite me

If only I had seen

The hell behind your smile

If only I had felt your pain

With every word

With every look, with every sign

I only turned my back again
