Closer to Your Heart

I found you with a broken heart
tears now turned to blood
I saw imprints on your shirt
of where you had died inside

I took you with open arms
to guide you back from misery
I mustered all of my charm
but you still lay dead inside

you gave him your heart
and took out mine
and when you hurt
I die inside...

I want to feel your pain
I want to take it all
I want to feel your pain
I want to take all of it away

I want to live your pain
I want to live that way
I want to die inside...

just so I can be closer to your heart

don't leave me in the dark
I can help you
don't push away
I can heal you

give me time
and you will see
a part of me
that will surface from inside

I stand here waiting for you
at the place where we met
you never came to me
because you were already dead

I fell to my knees
I screamed out in pain
is this what its like
to feel this way?

I want to feel your pain
I want to take it all
I want to feel your pain
I want to take all of it away

I want to live your pain
I want to live that way
I want to die inside...

just so I can be closer to your heart
