Absence

I can feel my absence is crushing you inside
 I can hear the pain in all the words you say
 They cut so deep the wounds don't even bleed
 Blinded by resentment that tortures me
 Can't bear the pain I have put you through
 As I fear for the beast that cripples you
 Stolen away like a thief in the night
 Broken each day
 Try to forget but it won't go away
 Another empty minute an endless stream of days
 The time that never seems to move is driving me insane
 Another passing hour a sentence I disdain
 Begging the faceless shadows to release me from this place
 Can't bear the pain I have put you through
 As I fear for the beast that cripples you
 Stolen away like a thief in the night
 Broken each day
 Try to forget but it won't go away
 ♪
 The time has come for me to be set free
 ♪
 Anxiety it overtakes me I'm paralyzed right through
 The distance in between our fate is my never-ending doom
 Because I'm stolen away like a thief in the night
 Because I'm broken each day
 Try to forget but it won't go away
