Something Broken

Loss of Love

I'm watching the minutes slide off the clock
Sitting in the silence of an unanswered plea
"Please don't leave me, I need you to stay"
But my emotions are drifting there's no other way

The tears well in your eyes like they are begging to stay
But I know that when I go
they will too
I love you so, the attraction between us is undeniable
But two magnets of the same charge will always be forced apart

We fight till tears and walls of emotion crumble and cave
But I'm always drawn back to you, the snake that already has venom in my veins
I can't keep holding you up above the water when I can't breathe
I know that this hurts, but you need a new happiness

This time, try to find it in yourself
