Gray Days (written 17/03/11)

This is inspired by and includes references to Sonata Arctica's album "The Days of Grays":

GRAY DAYS

In my bed sobbing I lie
As you, my only love had to die
Your death painted one of my grayest days
I prayed life is just a phase

Lost and broken I didn’t know what to do
There is no life without you
I can not control my life anymore
I’ve been shattered deep into my core

That I am happy I am sick of pretending
As I have to act as if my world isn’t ending
No dream can heal my broken heart
When we’re apart

I honestly can’t believe you’re gone
I’m suffering every moment I’m left without you, alone
The one thing that nobody can see
Is every night when I'm turning in my tears find me

At times I see no reason to live in this hell
I need someone to tell
Me exactly why
Your death shouldn’t be my sole reason to die

I hate that no one can tell me why
You, my love had to die
I’m driving myself to despair
Wondering if the truth is out there, somewhere

I really hope that there
Is more than life we can share
As the thought of never seeing you again
Only serves to intensify my pain

The hope that when my time comes after many years, we get to be
Together for all eternity
When we can once again hold each other and know we are free
Rakastan sinua niin paljon ritarini
