Despair
Words By: Michael Griffey
As I think of yesterday,
I cannot forget the love we shared,
Of the happiness we felt inside,
And now as I come back to today,
I realize that the happiness is gone,
I don’t know what went wrong,
And I can’t forget,
How we kissed,
For the first time,
In the rain,
How we were as close,
And now nothings the same,
And the memories,
Keep flooding in,
Remind me of the pain,
Keeping me in touch,
With reality,
Can’t you see, what you mean to me,
You are the moon, you are the stars,
And you are my life.
Despair!
That’s what I feel,
When I can’t go on any longer.
Despair!
It’s the pain of knowing,
That the one you love doesn’t love you no more.
Despair!
It’s reality,
It’s the painful truth that cuts like a knife.
Despair!
It’s living life without you,
Nothing really matters,
Without you.
From the minuet we met,
To the second we split apart,
I could not begin,
To describe,
The feelings I felt for you,
All of my hopes and dreams,
Came crashing down,
And burnt to the ground,
As you left,
And took a separate road,
I could never,
Find another,
Who could satisfy,
This undying hunger,
You’re the one I need,
And I’ll wait,
Until the end.
Can’t you see,
What you mean to me,
You are the moon, the stars,
And my…
--CHORUS—
Despair!
