I've been trying my best to live without you,
I end up only surviving, 'Cause I don't know how to.
It’s been two months since you've been gone,
Now it's just me and your pictures in phone.

My mind's been pushing me to move on,
Deep down, soul's crying, longs to hold on.
Either with you, or I'd rather be left alone,
It's your love that gave me flight, I'll fall as your swan.

One thought of losing you and my head's underwater.
Anxiety moves fast, while all’s slowed down.
Haunted by the ghosts of yesterdays.
What once was bed, now more of a ghost town.

The further I tread into tomorrow,
Hopes start to fade, bringing sorrow.
Autumn turned to winter, You didn't return.
Drenched in kerosene of love, I'm left to burn.

Can't tell, how much I need your arms.
Not once, I got to feel that warmth.
All the dreams we moulded up, Promises I believed in.
Everything's turning to dust, I can't help I ain't leaving.

Thinking about you, I'm still standing in the past,
For me, I knew these good times won’t last.
With vexed eyes, I stare up at the moon,
Urging to cry out "Why the hell you left too soon?"!!
