Leaving

I'm falling again through dark skies of pain
Where the stars shine cold and cruel
Alone and uncaring, abandoned by hope
Branded an outcast fool

I thought it was done, thought I'd gotten away
Broke free of the ties that bound me
But I look around, there's no one there
As far as my eyes can see

I've tried to find a way to break out
But I'm lost in the grip of this madness
And farther I fall, down and down
Toward the depths of eternal sadness

I wish I could share but one last touch
A laugh, a sigh, the love in her eyes
But these walls unshakeable and unbreakable
Echo back the sound of my cries

The taste of happiness now long since gone
Memories of another place
Where I was loved for a short time
The sun was warm on my face

Somehow for me its got to end
I pray for my time to come
The hope I had has faded away
And lifes light has gone down with the sun

Tell them I loved them....
