NO ONE THERE by Springheeled Jack
Opening the door when I get home at night,
I stop and stand and sigh,
My head bowed low and my eyes shut tight,
Whispering a silent "why".
Perhaps thats just the reason why,
When I get home there no one there
In each room life came and went,
And now they just stand still,
Once full of laughter but now just silent,
I wish I had not spoke ill.
Perhaps thats just the reason why,
When I get home there no one there
In every room Ive uttered why,
That none but me know why,
A muffled sob to try not to cry,
As I see a happy memory,
Perhaps thats just the reason why,
When I get home there no one there
I am face with my own stupidity,
Oh how I wished Id known,
That love was there but I didnt see,
An now I am on my own,
Perhaps thats just the reason why,
When I get home there no one there
Now theres no Hello and no Goodbye,
And I know now that you did care,
Perhaps thats just the reason why,
When I get home there no one there
Perhaps thats just the reason why,
When I get home there no one there.
I want to find the peace I lost
I tried to find it but at what cost
Its tearing me in two that Im apart,
From you who in the beginning stole my heart
I want to find the smile I had,
When I saw you before things were bad,
If anything I always had hope
Before I turned into a stupid dope.
I want I found the smile in your eyes,
Before it turned into despise,
Shatter dreams and a broken heart
I wish I had a chance to tell you but where do I start.
I wanted to find the perfect love,
I thought I found it in you I didn’t mean to shove,
It was me that I was scaring,
When I thought you gave up on caring.
I want to find the man you saw,
That I really truly was before,
He still exists and is still around,
Desperately wanting to be found,
Deep within my lonely soul,
Now you’re not here there is a hole,
But hidden underneath my tears,
A locked box holding all my fears,
Also hidden out of sight,
There is a fire still burning bright,
That my enternal love that’s still for you
With out you now what will I do.
How could I be so stupid for not seeing
That you were my only reason for being,
From you it hurts to be apart,
You will always have a piece of my heart.
The hand that writes this is a lonely shell,
That has created its own hell,
But now what am I going to do
To stop me from so missing you.
Now you are gone my days are empty
And that’s because of me,
But for me there is no release
As my heart is picked up piece by piece,
But make no mistake and I want to say
As I go through day by day
But now what am I going to do
To stop me from so loving you.
THE EMPTY BED by Springheeled Jack
The morning breaks through the curtain,
Just for one moment time stands still,
Thoughts stirred and smile wakes up
An early morning stretch
A yawn and an outreached hand
Switching on hearts light
Searching hands reach out,
Followed by a deep melacholic sigh
Thought stand still and realise,
A turned head with eyes slowly opening
At the empty space beside
Eyes close holding back a tearful sigh
With a solitary hearts rendered wish
Filling the empty space beside.
