Leave me be, by the sea shore,
Forget it, for I know there's nothing more,
Nothing more to be said or done,
You don't even know it's me you shunned,
Leave me be, under a canopy of trees,
And watch as my tears spill into the great seas,
Perhaps this was all a mistake I do not know,
But I do see this, as the final blow.
Biting back the tears, I walk down the road,
Seeds of sorrow and hate in my head are sowed,
The hole in my chest grows bigger,
And the pain in the pit of my stomach doesn't get any better,
Longing for kindness from another soul,
Knowing that my life is my own,
Just let me fly, and set me free,
I am starting to believe that this was never meant to be.
Leave me be, by the side of a rocky hill,
Watch me watch the world around; so still,
I can't do this anymore, this constant fighting,
My sorrows grow bigger and more deep and long standing,
I tire of hoping against hope; and having faith,
Perhaps for me it is far too late,
There is little I can do to open your eyes,
Little I can say to make you hear my cries.
The desperation flows thickly in my blood, uncontrollably,
Unleashing the beast in me......breaking me emotionally,
My heart has changed colour to pure black,
In my actions its shown; and that's a fact,
Circumstance has forced me to harden my heart,
I fought against that from the start,
True I can be branded as a victim of my circumstances; as being weak,
But I don't care; The pain has gripped me so tight, I can hardly speak.
