Silent Pleas

[xidreamofyou32x]

You’d come a long away
Since that distant day
When you tried to end all your pain
You told me that was behind you and you were now okay
I was so desperate that it blinded me from the truth
It’s all my fault that we lost you

I’m so sorry things had to turn out this way
If I could go back, I’d go back and chase all your demons away
I couldn’t hear your silent pleas for help
I ignored the signs, pretended everything was going well
Now the world will never see your shining face again
I can’t believe this is how things had to end

As a child you looked at the world through innocent eyes
Not knowing their promises were all just lies
Their sharp words cut through you like knives
Scarring your young heart for life

I’m so sorry things had to turn out this way
If I could go back, I’d go back and chase all your demons away
I couldn’t hear your silent pleas for help
I ignored the signs, pretended everything was going well
Now the world will never see your shining face again
I can’t believe this is how things had to end

If only I could have seen the fear in your eyes
If only I knew you were running out of time
Now it’s too late for me to say goodbye
I can never forget the events that took place that faithful night

I’m so sorry things had to turn out this way
If I could go back, I’d go back and chase all your demons away
I couldn’t hear your silent pleas for help
I ignored the signs, pretended everything was going well
Now the world will never see your shining face again
I can’t believe this is how things had to end
