if i cant hear your heartbeat, you're too far away


I can't believe I'm actually saying goodbye
with the ashes of what we were in front of me
it was just the other day
that i remember...
it was your smiling face,
you were smiling at me
and now today i say so long
to never see you again.
and maybe one day you'll smile again,
but it wont be at me.
not even if i prayed.
not even if i cried,
not even if i begged you to stay...
today you still take your leave...
far away from me.
far away from everything and everyone.
today you're just getting up and leaving.
leaving me behind,
did you not realize that
as you walked away?
i was on my knees,
but you wouldn't stay
so this is goodbye, i see
what is it that made you so unhappy here?
was it me?
was it us?
because the life you left behind
wasn't much for complaining
so what was it
that made you drop it all
and take a chance out there
without me?
because today i stand here
staring at the tire tracks in the driveway
you were in such a rush,
why did you keep your plan so hushed?
because today you left me here alone
in a house, no longer home
