Vertical Horizon - I'm Still Here

I found the pieces in my hand
They were always there
It just took some time for me to understand
You gave me words I just can't say
So if nothing else
I'll just hold on while you drift away

Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The cities grow the rivers flow
Where you are I'll never know
But I'm still here
If you were right and I was wrong
Why are you the one who's gone
And I'm still here

I'm still here

You've seen the ashes in my heart
You smile the widest when I cry inside and my insides blow apart
I try to wear another face
Just to make you proud
Just to make you put me in my place

But everything you wanted from me
Is everything that I could never be

Maybe tonight it's gonna be alright
I will get better
Maybe today it's gonna be okay
I will remember

I held the pieces of my soul
I was shattered
And I wanted you to come and make me whole
Then I saw you yesterday
But you didn't notice
You just walked away

Cause everything you wanted me to hide
Is everything that makes me feel alive

The lights go out the bridges burn
Once you go you can't return
But I'm still here
Remember how you used to say
I'd be the one to run away
But I'm still here

I'm still here

bangku taman yg kosong
kembali aku duduk disini
menyandarkan letih sejenak

aku mencintainya dalam diam
sebab kata - kata hanya menyakiti
menerbitkan muram di tepi cahaya mata

tangan yg malang
terus bersembunyi di balik punggung
meremas cinta dulu dengan cemas

nafas apakah yg kau hembus ?
udara yg kutitipkan dalam kasih sayang

bangku taman yg kosong
kembali aku duduk disini

dan ranting yg jatuh dari dahan
seperti perasaan menatapmu di kejauhan
ingin mengejar;
tapi terlambat benar

+++

dan kali ini aku sepertinya telah kehilangan harapan atas mu ? aku tak bermain lagi. selama aku bernafas - akan aku coba hingga kau melihatku.
