Never

"Why, why do you make me cry?"
And the answer is just beyond my comprehension
I lack the sense to understand
Or, perhaps, I do understand, and do not like the answer
I heard a lie so often, that it became a truth
A truth which is now shattered, as I am
Oh, I loved him so...but he doesn't know who he is
Funny how I can see what he cannot
But, he's a very broken man, searching for himself
It seems I was just a small part of his journey
Oh, I loved him so...
I never saw the reality, behind the dreams
I never noticed the facade, until it was too damn late
Now, I feel like a stranger in my own home
And everywhere else I go, I just don't belong
I'm in between these two places, sitting on that fence
Alone...
If I scream, will anybody listen to me?
If I try, how far will I fall?
I'm feeling weak, in the knees
And I just can't sleep, haven't slept for days
Someone tell me what to do...
No, there is nothing to do, I know, I know
Right now, I just can't see
As my soul continues to bleed
Now I know, I'll never see you again
