My Immortal

Yea... this is it. This is Emma's state of mind... this is Jeremy in her head. And who knows really why it touches me so...
_______________________

I'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all my childish fears
and if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
because your presence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you'd cry I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have...all of me

you used to captivate me
by your resonating light
but now I'm bound by the life you left behind
your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have... all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
but though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I held your hand through all of these years
but you still have... all of me

Can you believe I have been trying to listen to this song for 20 minutes to confirm and verify the lyrics? I listened and listened... and the phone would ring about halfway through -- three times that happened. That has to mean something. I guess it depends on who was calling. I guess it also depends on who I was hoping would call? How come I don't have more friends? Ok.. that's an aside for another day.
