There's Nothing Left

By: Daniel Alexandre Antunes

I want to be far away and be able to die,
Sometimes I ask myself why I even try,
I give you all I can think of and more,
You get mad or get attitude; sometimes I'm not sure,
I cry and can't even tell you how I feel,
I'm hurt in the heart, and that isn't able to heal,
You can never place a Band-Aid on a broken heart,
I always give you my strength and my love, I'd wish you'd start,
I want for us to stop fighting, and for you to start caring,
I think we'll never be the same, that's what I am fearing,
I want to hold you and make everything better,
I can remember everything that I've ever said in any letter,
Now that I lay me down to sleep, you're not by my side,
My pillow's soaking wet from all the tears I've cried,
Now, when I look into your sad eyes I see me no more.
From now till the day of my end you'll be the one I adore,
I wish I tried to kill myself and go away,
Then I'd want to see what you would have to say,
Let me take you in my arms, I'd erase the hurt we see,
And then I'd be able to show the love I have inside of me,
Every day you should see how I try and be a better man,
I wish you would love me and begin to understand,
And through all this time I'll love you for so many years,
Through all this and the future you'll only cry those happy tears,
Let me try with my all, to be everything I can,
I can even build your dreams with these two hands.
I want you to start acting like you are still you,
And to start showing others that you are really true.
Sometimes I feel like I can only resort to death,
'Cause I feel that in our relationship, there's nothing left.
