Love Denied

Every day it seems much harder
Just trying to make it through.
I realize that I'll never get
The chance to share my love with you.
Every time the promise of adventure
Lies within my reach,
It's pulled away, and I'm tossed and I'm battered
Like a dead thing on the beach.

Why didn't you tell me you were not for me?
Why didn't you say that this could never be?

I get no peace when I sleep
'Cause you're always right there in my dreams,
And every time I awaken, it's to
The sound of my own tortured screams.
When you pushed me over the edge
You never thought about the rocky shore (or did ya?)
Now I'm lying here, broken and bleeding,
And you walk right out the door.

(Faster pace)
I'd like to walk away,
But there's nowhere to go
That I haven't been to before.
I try to run,
But the road keeps bringing me
Back to where I started.

And now the rain comes down,
And it won't be long till all of my dreams are
Washed away,
Swept aside into a
Cold, uncaring,
Cold, unfeeling
World.
