I  cannot leave  here, I cannot stay,
 Forever haunted,  more than afraid.
 Asphyxiate  on words I would say,
 I'm drawn to  a blackened sky as I  turn blue.
There  are no flowers, no not this time,
 There'll be no angels gracing the lines,
 Just these stark words,  I find.
I'd  show a smile, but i'm too weak,
 I'd share with you could I only speak,
 Just how much this,  hurts me.
I  cannot stay  here, I cannot leave,
Just  like all  I loved, I make believe.
Imagine heart,  I disappear,  seems,
No  one will  appear, here and make me  real.
There  are no flowers, no not this time,
 There'll be no angels gracing the lines,
 Just these stark words,  I find.
I'd  show a smile, but i'm too weak,
 I'd share with you could I only speak,
 Just how much this,  hurts me.
I'd  tell you how it haunts  me,
I'd  tell you how it haunts  me,
 (cuts through my day, and sinks into my dreams.)
 I'd tell you how it haunts me,
 (cuts through my day, and sinks into my dreams.)
You  don't care that it haunts  me.
 Oh,
There  are no flowers, no not this time,
 There'll be no angels gracing the lines,
 Just these stark words,  I find.
I'd  show a smile, but i'm too weak,
 I'd share with you could I only speak,
 Just how much this,  hurts me.
 Just how much this,  hurts me.
 Just how much you...
