The pain that had my heart seared,
Could have had me break a record in shedding tears.
But now that the tears have gone away,
A deep melancholy has come to stay.

Drained powerless,
And almost careless
Trying not to give up,
Trying not to give in,
Trying to be strong, like you told me

Your words are still ringing in my head,
While I'm sitting all alone in my bed
And now that the salty streams have stopped flooding,
A deep, hurt depression has come throbbing.

Drained powerless,
And almost careless
Yet I try not to give up,
I try not to give in,
I try to keep some hope that you will change things...
