Without You


I could go without

Air to breath

The food I need

But without you I am dying

 

I could spend my lonely days

Underground

And never make a sound

But without you I am buried

 

I could worship

Any god

To whom I may pray

But without you I lose faith

 

I could trade

Light for dark

Vision for none

But without you I am blind

 

I could set fire

To every part of me

Every member

But without you I am cold

 

I could live

For only one day

Wasting away

But without you I suffer for years

 

I could grow wise

And learn my mistakes

Fixing what breaks

But without you I loose my mind

 

I could go without you

But to consequences I heed

You are all that I need

Because I am nothing without you
