The Thing That Died

Watch as I fade away, will it be the same today?
No time to regret, that's the things I forget.
Its all slipping away from my hands.
Out of reach, you don't understand.
I'm gone in a Blink of the eyes, you all don't look so surprised.
The thing that died is me, you can't say I never tried.

Miracles are second chances, words are to have a voice.
Not like it'd make a difference, when the world never gave you a choice.
Standing next to you, I still feel I'm standing through you.
Reaching out to hold onto, parts of you I thought would save me.

The thing that died is me, you can't say I never tried.
The thing that died in me, was the part that tried.
The thing that died within me, never made a difference.
The thing that died for me, never had a voice .

An essence could fill the void, that this broken heart conceals.
And time could only replace the hurt I feel.
Second looks and opinions, never mattered at all.
Friend's only stay by your side until you fall.
So go ahead and erase me, ease the pain.
Go ahead replace me, and ease the pain.

You can act a fool, until you're used like a tool, they all swim in the vanity that's gone.
Hopelessly detach, awaken and afraid, they mock as you sit alone.
Where can I go, just to fit in? All I got is me, and its dying within.
Can't believe in God, cause there's nomore good to see.
