the battle has grown colder

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

all that used to be
will be no more
all the pain i've endured
will be gone forever
all the lost goodbyes and empty forgiveness
will never be heard
i've failed you in this life of mine
all of you
every single one
i fought with strength and dignity
but lacked any sort of pride
for all my fighting was for you
not me
there wasn't any reason
except to make you believe
that i can take the abuse, the pain, the heartache
and yet the fight has ended in my mind
i've lost everything
so now there's no reason left in fighting
the battle has grown colder
your hearts have grown warmer
yet i can't let myself in
i'm pushing away
i've failed every one of you
why get in the way?
