You love and love....but then it's time to let go.
~Too far gone~


You're dead inside
Burnt to the bone

No longer have a place to call your own

You said you're weak
Your soul is tired

We loved
We shared
We lost
We cried

I tried to give you strength
Bring you back to life

I wanted to soothe your pain
Erase your troubles

I think you're too far gone
Too far gone to love anymore.

You said you wished
Hoped for a miracle

And that I had your heart
even if I didn't want it

I loved you more than you realized
At times I loved you more than you deserved

Maybe our wishes were not enough
I guess our hopes slipped away

You're dead inside
Burnt to the bone

We loved
We shared
We lost
We cried

You're too far gone now
Too far gone to love anymore.
