When you’re face down in the dirt
And your body aches you can’t take anymore
When your body grows weak and starts to hurt
And you’ve made your way through every door
Remember what got you there
Remember what made you care
The mornings waking next to that empty spot
And the pain that was worse than being shot
The sight and sound as your words fade into the air
You cry to yourself why did I even care
When the sun goes down and the day is done
When everyone else carries on and has fun
You’re sitting alone thinking what did I do
How can we fix this mess between me and you
Trying never seemed to get us there
Cast aside and thrown away because she didn’t care
The mornings waking next to that empty spot
And the pain that was worse than being shot
The sight and sound as your words fade into the air
You cry to yourself why did I even care
The time that was spent we’ll never get back
When you close your eyes and all you see is black
Her face haunts you while you’re asleep
On the slippery steep slope with feelings you can’t keep
Wondering how you ever managed to get there
Hoping and praying someday someone will care
