Dying

Dying a little
Day by day
Watching my life
Slowly slip away

Minute by minute
Inch by inch
The end is coming
And I won't flinch

Every second
In every way
The emptiness growing
Deeper each day

Every second,
Every tear
It'll be over soon
And I won't be here

The hurt cuts deeper
Than a knife
I wish it'd go away
Along with my life

Now I'm falling,
Falling apart
Nothing can stop
The pain inside my heart
