Musings

Remind Me

Remind me what changed 
Won't you tell me again 
That you love me
So I'll try and blink the tears away
Was this how it was supposed to be?
Why am I left searching for you everywhere?

You said you'd take me away with the breeze,
Through mountains and trees
Then why am I lying in a heap?
You said it was a promise you'd keep.

Memories blossomed in my eyes and onto my face 
They were all over the place;
Couldn't you see them begging you to stay?

  

But here I am,
Disintegrating to smithereens 
Why are you so far away?
Our memories gone astray
Carried away instead by that breeze

All I can do is repeat
For you to come home;
Come back to me

And all I can do is cry myself to sleep
So that at least in my dreams
I can see you
Waiting for me

Why couldn't you take my heart with you?
'Cause I don't think my body can harbour it
It has beaten its course;
Its beaten black and blue

Tell me,
How am I supposed to live?
When everything around me is burning in embers;
And my world is lying six feet underneath
