This isn't farewell. It's more of an you-may-have-died-but-I'm-no-longer-living.

Drowning in love
I'm suffocating
I can't breathe this air
I can't find you anywhere

In a dream-like reality
I know I won't see you again
But I don't understand
Why my heart twists with pain

Every time my thoughts
Wander to your wonder
With no intention of stopping
Not until I remember

I've been left behind
I always thought it'd be me
I wish I could give away
This life to love, to those in need

Maybe then I'll find you
But I know I won't see you again
So here I am, ragged and broken
This what I've lost, hopelessly hoping

This is the end
Rounding the bend
But I'm suffocating, because I know
This agony will never end.
