Slipped Away

When you slipped away and left me behind.
I fell deep into pain, a feeling lost in time.
I dragged my feet across the open path.
Led tears right through the waves that crashed.

I held onto my heart like there was nothing left.
I held onto my pain like it was worse than death.
I wanted nothing more than to slip with you.
To hold onto your love, like I used to do.

My mind will play many tricks, which we've seen before.
I knelt down to hell, as it opened a door.
Where I've seen your face many times, once more.
The same pain resurfaced, like a step on a thorn.

When you slipped away, my heart lost it's beat.
When it stopped I wondered where our love would lead.
The same heart we shared in past times.
Now the grave where you lay, will lay next to mine.
