Buried

Keep you buried in my heart

When it hurts the most I feel you closest

I saw you frozen in a picture

I hold you there with me forever

Feeling cold and feeling broken



I carry on from day to day

Each growing pain will make me stronger

Pain is all a part of living

And I know most of life is waiting

But how can I hold on much longer?



You said that I was just someone

For good cheap clean generic fun

You called me just your baby sister

Only one of many others

Who’ve come and gone

And you must move on

So move on

But I keep you buried



It takes all my strength to breathe

To the world my best kept secret

I keep on laughing through the pain

The ordinary’s not the same

I feel abandoned and defeated



I hold your picture in my hand

A single moment in ten million

I hear us laughing in my mind

But that was once upon a time

The moment died when time killed it



And in my dreams I hold you close

Those are the dreams I hate the most

I devour you when I am sleeping

Wake up alone and aching

To touch the one

Who’s come and gone

I know you’re gone

But I keep you buried



And I cry every time you go

I love you more than you could know

I’d give up my life to defend you

How can I be just a friend who’s

Come and gone

But I must hold on

So I hold on

And I keep you buried



Keep you buried in my heart

Keep you frozen in a moment

I breathe again and carry on

Sometimes life is just too long

When it hurts the most I feel you closest
