you left the room and it got dark
without anyone shutting the light off
your shadow still glowing
your scent still perfuming the air
although it`s been ages
since you left
as it`s been said time and time again
pain makes you stronger
but, I don`t want to be that strong
I don`t want to be that strong
no, I don`t want to be that strong
I`ve been through enough
and am strong enough
as it is
how are you doing
how am I doing
I don`t know
I am still living
in your past
watching days go by
in the twilight of my mind
you left the room and it got dark
without anyone shutting the light off
your shadow still glowing
your scent still perfuming the air
although it`s been ages
since you left
as it`s been said time and time again
pain makes you stronger
but, I don`t want to be that strong
I don`t want to be that strong
no, I don`t want to be that strong
I`ve been through enough
and am strong enough
as it is
the last words ever spoken
may come sooner than later
the lost worlds will never return
only to haunt you
only to give your life more challenges
making it even harder to cope
as it`s been said time and time again
pain makes you stronger
but, I don`t want to be that strong
I don`t want to be that strong
no, I don`t want to be that strong
I`ve been through enough
and am strong enough
as it is
as it`s been said time and time again
pain makes you stronger
but, I don`t want to be that strong
I don`t want to be that strong
no, I don`t want to be that strong
I`ve been through enough
and am strong enough
as it is
Inspired by a few of the words spoken in a conversation between my friend T. Johansen and myself earlier today
