My Love, My Pain

The waiting is what is choking me
Squeezing the life out of me
I am waiting to see
If she'll save me

Now every little thing is worth breaking over
Every little thing is worth the tears
I wish I could show her
Why the clouds cried my fears

I wish she would take me in her arms
And say I was all she ever wanted
Put to rest all my alarm
Love me, flaunt it

But I know she won't
She's in another's web
The love was loaned
Now it will ebb

Now my heart beats sadness
Like venom
And I feel beset by madness
I wear it like an emblem
