In The Absence You Own

i lied to you when i said i was alright
the night finds me in a lonely time
where i'm vulnerable and accept punishment
for company.

how sad it is you realize
music can't heal everything

i found myself reading the expression on your face
this morning.
if a picture's worth a thousand words...
you sure didn't waste any
i should throw away these memories
they only bring tears to me...
and the night finds me in a lonely time.

i know it's not my fault
i did everything i could
but if i wasn't enough
to make you happy
then why am i still breathing?
i want to know who's me tonight
who's comfort, who's another fight.
all these insecure questions bleed into
one another, but i know that the bottom line is
that you're not alone and i am,
clinging to a hope that you will fix this...
and i'll wake up...
and i'll wake up with you
