I live the life where I can be free
But I know that it's all fantasy
I know that I'm always dreaming every time something goes wrong
The screams
The blood
The pain
The sorrow that I feel
Will it one day go away within time?
But you know I can't forever more, time is running out, I'm not getting any older than I am
It seems that time seems to stop, everything in motion comes flying by so fast for me to realize this;
I love you
Now that you're gone
No longer in this world, you didn't even say goodbye to me
Now I'm just stalling down here, while you're up there
It's time for me to say
I'll let you go
