Hope
Rain is falling, hitting the sidewalk,
The voices blend, like street chalk.
Your smile resounds in my mind with pain,
Makes my tears fall in unison with rain.
Where have you gone? Didn't you say you'd stay?
Why did everything turn out this way?
I know you've left for good, that you won't return,
Yet my heart continues to hope and yearn.
Please return to me with that smile you possess,
Offer my wayward, heartbroken soul deliverance.
You are my suicide but my only salvation,
Thoughts of you consume my mind, a bittersweet invasion.
I wonder if you are happier now that I am gone,
I wonder if you ever thought about what you've done.
I begged you to pick me up off my knees,
But you left an empty shell of me.
I am worthless, a weed all alone in the world,
A once beautiful woman, now a broken little girl.
My heart hopes even now though my soul is dead,
This mind racing with every word you said.
Where was the indication that the love had died?
Why did you continue holding me, why continue to lie?
Please return with that bright smile of yours,
bring me out from sea and back to shore.
Heart breaking in the moments your away,
The clock ticking away the days.
I still hope that you'll come to love me again,
Because I'll be empty until then...
The voices blend, like street chalk.
Your smile resounds in my mind with pain,
Makes my tears fall in unison with rain.
Where have you gone? Didn't you say you'd stay?
Why did everything turn out this way?
I know you've left for good, that you won't return,
Yet my heart continues to hope and yearn.
Please return to me with that smile you possess,
Offer my wayward, heartbroken soul deliverance.
You are my suicide but my only salvation,
Thoughts of you consume my mind, a bittersweet invasion.
I wonder if you are happier now that I am gone,
I wonder if you ever thought about what you've done.
I begged you to pick me up off my knees,
But you left an empty shell of me.
I am worthless, a weed all alone in the world,
A once beautiful woman, now a broken little girl.
My heart hopes even now though my soul is dead,
This mind racing with every word you said.
Where was the indication that the love had died?
Why did you continue holding me, why continue to lie?
Please return with that bright smile of yours,
bring me out from sea and back to shore.
Heart breaking in the moments your away,
The clock ticking away the days.
I still hope that you'll come to love me again,
Because I'll be empty until then...
