cries from a bitter man

i ask why, how can this all happen
what was once so beautiful
now alls left is a broken man longing after someone
who's gone, who's hurt, who doesnt want me around
even though i can be, as was once before

painful memories, celebrations supposed to be due
but now not anymore, its been taken away,
wrenched from my heart, tearing me apart
a soul that has been crippled, limping on

and i ask once again, feeling the bitterness once again
how can you do this, how can You? do you care? do You care?
i dont know how to go one, youve changed so muich of my life
and now youve gone, fearful, im torn inside out

its hard to smile that much, roses that have withered
age where there once was youth
resentment and regret where joy once filled
just a shell, just a faithless man, on his knees
thats what i've become, do you look on?
i cant pretend that nothing has happend.
im not you, i just cant pretend.

and i ask once again, how do i get on
abandoned, left behind, are you there?
are You there? is there hope for me?
what i know is tested, its hard to pass

how could you, how could you, how could you
i never knew, this side of u.
