Gone
Loved ones,
Missing,
They were there,
Now they're gone...
Dead, dust,
Silent, quiet,
I miss them so,
For them I long...
Lost, lost,
They all are lost,
Can't find their way
In all this mess...
Found, found,
I wish it so,
But still not here,
They're here less...
Asleep, asleep,
Sleeping silently,
Cannot breathe,
Maybe dead...
Awake, awake,
I am awake,
They're still here
Inside my head...
Away, away,
They won't go away,
Nagging at me,
Wish they'd disappear...
Near, near,
I know they're near
The voices in my head
Are still here...
Loved ones,
Missing
They were there,
Now they're gone...
