"Still Standing There"

I packed my bags, took the next lane,

Left behind what I was supposed to gain...

But every step I take, I feel the same,

Cause you're still standing there, lost in the pain.

I ask why… oh, dear Lord, why?

Am I cruel, unworthy in my sight?

Why do I stand here, where the road unfolds,

Privileged with chances to hold

Once another world view of gold?

I run, I climb, I break the chains,

Still, you're drowning in yesterday's remains.

I move, I fight, I chase the night,

But it hurts me deep—you’re stuck in tight.

Wait—you don’t see what I see,

Tired eyes, breaking silently.

Oceans washing away the shores

Of what we made together with our soars.

I say we grab the oars,

But you don't feel like it.

I push ahead, though I'm scared of the deep,

You stay in place as I crush my dream.

I wanted more,

I had to go,

But leaving you—that hurt me so... so much.

I know my love ain’t lost,

But it’s hard to know

If you feel me when the temperature drops below zero.

You’re numb—unhealed, unfelt, unreachable, and unreal,

Yet, for you, something in me heals the pain that I still appeal.

You've been so depressed for so long,

You don't know it yet.

I wish you'd see the way I do,

But it breaks my heart—you can’t break through.
You're still standing there...
