Absence - Battlecross

I can feel my absence is crushing you inside

I can hear the pain in all the words you say

They cut so deep the wounds don’t even bleed

Blinded by resentment that tortures me

Can’t bear the pain I have put you through

As I fear for the beast that cripples you

Stolen away like a thief in the night

Broken each day

Try to forget but it won’t go away

Another empty minute an endless stream of days

The time that never seems to move is driving me insane

Another passing hour a sentence I disdain

Begging the faceless shadows to release me from this place

Can’t bear the pain I have put you through

As I fear for the beast that cripples you

Stolen away like a thief in the night

Broken each day

Try to forget but it won’t go away

The time has come for me to be set free

Anxiety it overtakes me I’m paralyzed right through

The distance in between our fate is my never-ending doom

Because I’m stolen away like a thief in the night

Because I’m broken each day

Try to forget but it won’t go away
