In a grey shaded monochrome world
Where everyone's asleep
I fight to keep up at night
My thoughts, incomplete
My days were always filled with you
Smiling, laughing joyfully
I thought you'd be here for me
But now I see, it was nothing but a broken dream
You've moved on, but I'm stuck
In this nightmare that can't go away
My pillar of hope, beacon of light
Shattered, and now a dull grey
The pain, fury, and my disbelief
Everything tossed about
Why are you gone?
My heart, is bleeding, no doubt
You did say yourself that you'll love me forever
Nothing will break us apart
How naive of me was to believe
Total love, complete happiness, a single lie
Flickering gleams from a wavering light
Reflecting in the light of the dull shining pain
Pressed against my skin, the cold bite
Watch it all drain away
It's raised, poised to strike
But then I recall
Those words of long ago
From you, my fall
Life won't always be nice
It'll play games
But not matter what happens
Don't give into the pain
For whatever you do
And whatever you don't
Just move on, try not to look back
You'll be okay, you ol' dope
For amongst all that hurt
Misery, anger, tears
Something good will happen
Believe me, my dear
I guess I could say
Those words saved my life
I didn't want to listen
But they helped me up
To my beloved
I thank you for those times
But now we move on
To a new life
