Eating Me Away
Like a leech, you're under my skin
Everyday, I feel like my worlds becoming dim.
I cry out into the night, but all in vain
You're never there, my voice seems to fade.
Walking through the day, I thirst for you
In that day, I'm losing myself without truth.
My true self lied within you, but you're gone
And I've been sitting here, suffering for so long.
Rubbing my face harshly, I hate these tears
Because I feel so damned weak without you here.
Can't you see me now, growing up and getting old?
And everyday, I feel more and more alone.
Dad, you've been eating away at my thoughts.
Everynight, I think about what I've lost ---
The only man I knew I could ever depend on
But now I finally let it sink in, you're long gone.
One day, I know I'll see you once more
But until that day comes, I'll be strong once more.
Because, your words are eating away at my mind
You've been telling me to hang on all this time...
