Go Away

There are days when you don't know what cold means
Days when you come home and sit in a darkened room
And know there's someone out there
That's wondering what you're doing tonight
There are days when the clock doesn't bother you
Except to tell you that you're late

There are days when the ticking is there
Reminding and
Not letting it go
Watching television and being all alone once more
Wishing it would all just go away
Hammering out the wrinkles of the day

There are days when nothing happens
And you drift through them as if they wasnt there
Blind and unfeeling
Except for the cold scent and
Dark expanse around you
Those days you can't tell from nights
Those two words ringing in your ears
The last two words she ever spoke to you
The chillness in her voice still hurts
The distaste in her tone as she hissed those two words
Go away...
Go away..
Go..... away.
