lyrics

It’s getting dark
And the sun falls behind the hills
And the town goes to sleep
But not everyone can rest
Because the pain that tightens the chest

And the tears that run down your face
You know you can’t replace
That empty spot in your heart
So easily

The sticks and stones that break your bones
Will cripple you and make you fall to the floor
To make you crawl in agony
And let you drown in an endless sea

It always feels this way
With nowhere to go
And no one to see
That empty heart is so hurtful
That empty heart will never go away

You wake up crying out that name
A certain someone who’d be next to you
But they’re never coming back
You don’t know where to go
To find that love that will be dear to you

It took so long to find that love
And now it’s gone away
Forever

Please go away
Just go away
My heart’s been torn
And it doesn’t need anymore pain
Just take me as I am
And always be mine
