Lonesome grave

Lonesome grave

It’s hard holding on having to hold back
Immense this pressure trying not to crack
Fighting to keep my emotions on track
Every perfect quality I seem to lack

Fell victim to love held hostage by fear
Everything’s blurry decisions unclear
Never felt further with you so near
Sometimes in life you want to disappear

I can’t explain this total misery
Trying to solve your heart's mystery
Pick the lock to set your feelings free
Only concerned they are not for me

I rise each morning to live the day
Awakened to find life’s complacent replay
Having to watch the words which we say
Which are the right ones to make you stay

Open your eyes my one mission is you
Decisions made are clearly thought through
Attacking is the last action to do
Instincts alert me she has no clue

Exactly how is it I should behave
Weak the knees my body wants to cave
You’re the only person who can save
Me from falling in this lonesome grave
