Better off

I've lost my light so I've lost my desire
The darkness consumes me like a raging fire

Its a losing effort to extinguish the flames
Will I be another victim that heartbreak claims?

I try to push on and get past the pain of loss
But my heart is shattered and I cant carry this cross

I refuse to believe this is how we were meant to be
Youre with someone else and I still choose not to see

Without you nothing is worth doing, especially living
Separated from your heart and the love you were giving

Its too much to bear and I struggle to carry on
Without someone who cares that I can rely upon

So the minutes blur into hours that then turn into days
But nothing is changing the agony still stays

And it won't get better because our souls are intertwined
I sit alone in distress as I slowly lose my mind

This wasnt supposed to be us and the universe is crying
Its throwing everything at us begging for a love thats dying
We were meant for each other but somewhere we stopped trying
You say we'll better off and I'd say I believe you but I'd be lying
