All That Remains – Shading

i’ve seen through the shading

and down to what’s within

reaching you will feel me

lost and alone

you said i was what you were looking for

so why do i feel so empty

and it seemed so real

pulled from my grasp taken away

am i nothing in your eyes

reaching out i feel

you were pulling away, never letting me in

i am nothing in your eyes

day in day out i see you live your life again

a fool i stand here in waiting

in letters words and pictures

you profess your love to me

and to the last they were lies

the malice i should feel for you deceitfulness

some how always escapes me

and in the shading

between the words you said to me

i know i’d be left empty
