Dead is a State of Mind

She wore red eyes, smeared makeup and all black today
I knew there was something on her mind, but what it was she wouldn't say
So I said "I love you" and I hoped her sadness would fade
But my darkest fears came true, my nightmare came to life and she just turned away

No
I shouldn't be this empty
I shouldn't be broken-hearted, so defeated
No, I should be strong
But how can I be strong when my life is gone?

She'll wear heavy makeup, bright blue eyes and all white that day
I see it now, and I know she won't want to but she won't say
She thinks she has to spend with him forever and a day
My darkest fears came true, my nightmare came to life and she walked away

No
I shouldn't be this empty
I shouldn't be so broken-hearted, so defeated
No, I should be strong
But how can I be strong when my life is gone?

And she's walking away, and she's walking away
As I'm calling her name, as I'm calling her name
No, my life, my love, my strength, my hope
Desperately clinging to every last memory
No, my hope, my peace, my heaven, my home
I tried so hard to try and give her all of me

Shouldn't be this empty
I shouldn't be so broken-hearted, so defeated
But how can I be strong?
Gone, my life, my love, my strength, my hope
Still listening to the echoes of our sweet melody
Gone, my hope, my peace, my heaven, my home
She just turned away, no, she walked away, and everything is gone
