I've seen through the shading
And down to what's within
Reaching you will feel me
Lost and alone, you said
I was what you were looking for
So why do I feel so empty?
And it seemed so real
Pulled from my grasp taken away
Am I nothing in your eyes? Reaching out I feel
You were pulling away, never letting me in
I am nothing in your eyes
Day in, day out, I see you live your life again
A fool, I stand here in waiting
In letters, words and pictures
You profess your love to me
And to the last they were lies
The malice I should feel for your deceitfulness
Somehow always escapes me
And in the shading
Between the words you said to me
I know I'd be left empty
