Because of you.
Fear runs riot.
Never knowing what lies around the corner.
Because of you.
Heartache is constant.
Never knowing whether to say hello or goodbye.
Because of you.
Sleep is torture.
Never able to close my eyes.
Because of you.
My health grows weak.
Struggling to keep my body alive.
Because of you.
My hope is destroyed.
Living life but waiting to die.
Because of you.
My time has come.
And all I can do is cry.
Because of you.
