Dead Inside
I wish I had a reason
To be there by your side
But my heartbeat stopped long ago
Back when my soul had died
Now the love I had has past
And it's never coming back
Those memories I keep within
Play on a repeating track
I wish I had a reason to breathe
But there's nothing left to taste
Just a flavorless expression
That's been written on my face
I wish I could enjoy the day
But everyday is just the same
When I try to bring back my emotions
It only brings me pain
I try to escape the Nothingness
But it's buried deep inside
And the only thing that keeps me moving
Is my stubbornness and pride
I see my reflection in the mirror
I wish there was something I could save
But no matter how hard I've tried
I just can't escape this grave
To be there by your side
But my heartbeat stopped long ago
Back when my soul had died
Now the love I had has past
And it's never coming back
Those memories I keep within
Play on a repeating track
I wish I had a reason to breathe
But there's nothing left to taste
Just a flavorless expression
That's been written on my face
I wish I could enjoy the day
But everyday is just the same
When I try to bring back my emotions
It only brings me pain
I try to escape the Nothingness
But it's buried deep inside
And the only thing that keeps me moving
Is my stubbornness and pride
I see my reflection in the mirror
I wish there was something I could save
But no matter how hard I've tried
I just can't escape this grave
