All Alone in my Bed

I admit I’m a shallow human-being

I only answered your call, to see how far it could go

every night I put on a smile, I changed inside

yet, you knew me through all the plastic

you knew I was afraid, of falling for you

you knew I put on this show, to hide from anything true

I pretend, and pretend I am someone else

through all the fake smiles, and friends that have come and gone

you stayed for awhile

but not for long

you showed me love, then you just left

I was a feather in the breeze, caught in a whirlwind

now I’m lost in my head

lost in my dreams

sitting in my room, writing my feelings

I can’t explain them, they just come

I can’t define in any world

what you have done

you look at me sometimes

we both know

the love we once shared

is too much to ignore

I have my friends, I have enough

but all I really need is your sweet love

I can’t eat, I can only think

my chest is caving in, and I can’t sleep

I cry everytime I hear your romantic voice in my head

I die everytime I remember the night you left me alone

all alone in my bed.
