As Lonely As Possible

By A Broken Soul

Go to sleep
Pretend like it was all just a nightmare
And I’ll dream of waking up with you
Sleeping next to me

Wrap myself
Keep the cold from touching my skin
It’s been so long since I’ve lost you
But it hasn’t quite seeped in

I guess I never knew
Everything I’d ever need
I found it all in you
And I let you slip away
I don’t see the reason why
God is punishing me
But I’m slowly starting to see
You were beautiful
And I was as lucky as I’ll ever be

Lock the door
Keep the world on the other side
Light some candles and I’ll
Revisit beloved memories

Close the curtain
Shield the light that will remind me
It’s been over two years and I
Still forget that you’re gone

I guess I never knew
Everything I’d ever need
I found it all in you
And I let you slip away
I don’t see the reason why
God is punishing me
But I’m slowly starting to see
You were beautiful
And I was as lucky as I’ll ever be

Shut my mind
It’s been so long since I have really thought
I guess I’m afraid to acknowledge
I’ve lost too much to live for
