I hurt again today
At least it's something to feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
With you I found I was whole
With you my familiar, I'd sing
Memories ebb and fade
But I will remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everywhere I see you
My dear friend
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I had to put you down
I am left with hurt

I'm left forlorn
upon the rolling chair
Full of broken shards
I cannot repair
mistakes in the strains of time
The feelings reappear
I am someone else
But I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everywhere I go I see you
My dear friend
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I had to put you down
I am left with hurt.

If I could start again
A few light years away
I would keep you for myself
And take away your pain
