THIS WINDOW

Standing on the ledge of my heart
Hanging by a tiny thread of hope
I lie and await your return
But you never part this misty haze

All I need is for you to come back
Come and fly me high up past the stars
To where you sleep at night
In your bed of clouds

Come and set me free
Unlock this cell I’ve presided in
Open the chamber door and let me run
Let me be one with you again

My heart is smashed against your wall
My soul is no longer full with your kisses
I hate the way you took my life away
Defeated me in one single instant

All I ask is for you to come home
Come back to these arms
They are open and begging for your touch
I need to feel the fire I used to feel inside of me

I wish you’d change the past
Make all those hazardous things go away
Catch all my bad dreams and turn them right again
Take away the hospital bills
The bloodshed and all those pills

I wish you could come back to me and love me
The way you used to
I wish you’d return those phone calls
I wish you’d answer me when I scream out your name

What right does death have to take my baby away?
I miss you more than anything
Despair and insomnia
I will never eat or sleep again
After I get done crying

If only you’d come to me in my dreams
And tell me what to do to ease the pain
Or kiss me like you used to
But instead you fill my head with hate
With pain and death upon myself

Why must I suffer the bullets of your goodbye?
All I did was stand by and cry
I always said I’d love you till the day I die
And well I’m not dead yet
But today is another day

Why won’t you just come down through the sun?
Send me a ray or two of sunshine
Make my eyes melt at the sight of your face
Make me realize how much fun it is to love you again

I wish for a miracle
I wish for your undead return
I wish the granite stone placed amongst the others didn’t read your name

There are so many things you could do for me
You could come and set me free
You could come and live with me
You could come and show your face
Or if you don’t want to waste your time…

You could just leave me lying here
