Together Up There

Not all scars show, not all wounds heal,
Sometimes you can't always see, the pain I feel.

I'm sick of crying, tired of trying,
Yeah I'm smiling, but inside I'm dying.

Laying on my bed, looking at the stars in the sky,
How I'd love to go up there, just fly,

Escape this world, all the lies,
Loving you, how hard I try,
Just leaves me in misery, makes me sigh.

It hurts when you have someone in your heart, you never want to be apart,

But it hurts even more not to have them in your arms,
To keep them sheltered from any harm.

You are my sunshine in the rain,
Yet you also bring me so much pain.

Sometimes I wish you'd just go away,
But here beside me is where you stay.

I think about you day and night,
In the darkness you are my light,
I beg for you to stay with me with all my might,
But you don't, and I'm left to argue with myself, and fight,
I wish you wouldn't leave my sight,
You make rainy days bright.

Some days I feel so alone in life,
I dream of one day being your wife,
But inside I know it'll never happen, so I resort to the knife.

Slit my wrist and hope to die,
Stick a needle in my eye.

Rid me of this feeling,
While looking at the ceiling,
Try to go through the process of healing,
I'm hurting inside but I'm dealing.

I do want my life to end, but not by my hand,
Whether it be choking or sinking in quick sand,
Or striked by lightening where I stand,
Whatever it is, just leave this dreadful land,
Get out of here is what I demand,
And be up there together where we planned.~
