Song Lyrics

When I close my eyes all I see are visions of you
And when I open my eyes
your absence holds me down
I try but I can`t shake myself loose
I can`t command my brain
All I do is shrink and think of one thing
I`m sitting alone beside me
I`m digging a hole inside myself

All I want is the place I think I`ve found
When I look into your eyes
All I know is that I`m tired of the world around me
Please don`t ignore me

Dedicated, here I am thinking of you
with everything within me
You`ll never see me, never feel me
never know these thoughts of mine
In my mind you`re always there, always smiling
Always reaching out to me
The days go on with heartache,
the days go on with emptiness

All I want is to somehow matter to you
Even if all else rejects me
All I know is that I`m hammered by the world
around me
Please don`t destroy me

I burn down time trying to find a way
to get through to you
I`m standing in line for a hand out
that will never come but still
I don`t care
Feeling like, looking like -naked
Here is everything I am
Laid out exposed wide eyed unable to forget you
