Sleep Tight

Heart broken, never to be made whole again.
You carried me through tough times
And acted as my boulder.
Carried me when I could not go on
Never left my side, not for a moment.

You took hold of my tears
As I cried on your shoulder.
Each and every pain I had,
You made your own torment.

They say tomorrow never dies.
They say it's called,
"The present" because it's a gift.
But how can tomorrow never die
If today never lived?

How can the present be a gift
If everything hurts me?
You are the only gift I need.
As I suffer, you suffer with me
And partake of my burdens.

Never before have I ever felt
So safe to bleed.
Knowing that you're right by my side till the end,
Even if my life were to close the curtains.

Class five rapids now flow from my eyes.
You left me and broke your promise.
You said we'd be together forever,
But I guess that were lies.

I don't know if I can ever forgive you,
For leaving me to my demise.
I guess I'll never know for it's too late.
You left me too long ago
And I've bled all day
Every day and every night.

You betrayed me and
And all my trust I had for you,
But I guess that was our true fate.
But now as I fade away,
I say good-bye and good-night.
