The God that I failed

It’s a busy, bright sunny day

I’m walking my way to work, on this lane again

I can see there’s so much noise around

But I can’t hear what they say

And I walk solitary in this crowd because I have no purpose to say

All I have is my shadow that abides me wherever I go

Now that you’re gone, I know

I’ll never have someone like you

You’re the god that I failed

Last night when I cried myself to sleep

The thoughts of you won’t leave my side

And the pain would kill me inside a million times

And no one else will ever take my side

You’re the god that I failed

I forgot those days when you made me laugh till my stomach hurt

And you nurtured the person within me

As we grew together you became my strength

But I conveniently forgot that I was the only weakness you ever had

I did the sin I should never have,

I made you cry and I brought you tears

And now there’s no looking back from here

All I have is my shadow that abides me wherever I go

Now that you’re gone, I know

I’ll never have someone like you

No one will and never can ever take the place of you in my heart

But, you’re the god that I failed.
