Seconds passing like hours, All these hours pass like they're days

Pain is draining any power, Sleep might tease but never stays

Steep price I pay for all the bliss, Effortlessness is never cheap

Steeped and teeming with torment is what the side of this coin keeps

And so that is what I now reap, I count these days but can't quite know

How many still crawl on toward me, this costly toll for what I sow

Her body holds me captive like she's not sure that I'm real

Her eyes are pleading to me voicing love that I can feel

Her presence stirs inside me breathing life into my purpose

Her touch it runs so deep that all her love pours out its surface

Her want returns my need as endless as lost time is wasted

Her need I want so bad that all I needed was to taste it

Her lips exhale my name in love I take in all I feel

When wrapped in sudden pain I fall awake and she’s not real

Night after night her blank face haunts my mind

Emotion and love when awake I can't find

A connection so real that all others seem fake

A connection so strong that it hurts just to wake

So caught in this memory of a past we don't share

So drawn to a beauty of a face that's not there

It's so hard to have faith in a love only shown

In the memory of a dream of a face never known

I've been searching so long with great hope that I'll find

This girl of my dreams that's been haunting my mind

Hand selected for the job

Both are firm within their standings

One now stands out part transparent

The other stands up quite demanding

One is wanted now that discarded

The other lost but now found needed

Bound to bleed opposing hearted

In suspense no inch proceeded

A breath of just a quiet instant

Shattered peace of shards and pieces

Objected movement forced persistent

Brilliant score sounds pleasing teases

One now fractured the other looming

Fulfilling sound failed right from start

Instructed web spun unassuming

Each captured puppet has played it’s part

Her body holds me captive like she’s not sure that I’m real

Her eyes are pleading to me voicing love that I can feel

Her presence stirs inside me breathing life into my purpose

Her touch it runs so deep that all her love pours out its surface

Her want returns my need as endless as lost time is wasted

Her need I want so bad that all I needed was to taste it

Her lips exhale my name in love I take in all I feel

When wrapped in sudden pain I fall awake and she’s not real

I ask you this question But I’m scared what you’ll say Will you trust in my Love Or just push it away If I asked you once more Would you answer my prayer Or leave me holding my heart For a Love that’s not there
