-Dedicated to my best friend Shannon Carrol who died a few years ago because of a serious case of rabies. She is always with me, I always think of her, and I pray that she is happy now, out of her pain and misery. It was too soon to say goodbye. She was 10 years old. This song goes to her.-

I'm so tired of being here
Supressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Because your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight awat all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have...all of me

You used to captivate me by your resignating light
Now I'm bound by the light you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

When you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand for all of these years
But you still have...all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
And though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
