Elucidating Questions

The chains on my heart tighten as I see you in a stranger’s face on the street

Knowing I’ll never see you

Knowing I’ll never meet you.

The chains on my heart tighten when you call my name silently

And I know I’ll never hear your voice again as I haven’t heard it before

Switching to far away where he’s putting on a show

Thinking on repeat

It’s the same you know

I don’t know how I live without you

I don’t know how I’ll live without him

But then again I’m not living

And I haven’t lived in so long

I feel like a dead person shuffling

Existing but never living

Surviving but never alive

Only the lonely survive

The living aren’t lonely

And surviving isn’t worth it
