Shed

In and out of my mind
Just as you were in my life
But you chose to stick around
Because: This time you’ll make it right
You’re searching for the end
With no way to comprehend
This endless void with no place to begin

You broke the compass
Bearing my way home
You made me lose
All I knew to feel whole
Lost and out of breath
You chose to seek me
But there was nothing left

You’d always cease to believe
That your absense had created my hell

I was a bastard choice from birth
I had no choice but to walk this earth
On my own

You broke the compass
Bearing my way home
You made me lose
All I knew to feel whole
Lost and out of breath
You chose to seek me
But there was nothing left

I would spend every day
Waiting on your return
Reciting vows you spoke
Rewriting words of hope
With no respect
That you could ever earn

My compassion is dead
My faith in you had fled
Absent minded
Absent heart
With no fucking remorse to be shed

I’m nothing
Stop searching

I’ve lost my faith in you

Owed nothing
No thanks

You still mean nothing to me

How could you leave
When you meant everything
