You’re always in my thoughts,
In my dreams,
That world is so much better,
Than this one seems.
The first time I tried to turn away,
Years and years ago,
It wasn’t too difficult,
To let my thoughts of you go.
But something inside,
Told me to hold on,
My heart had set itself on you,
Without you it couldn’t go on.
The second time I pulled away,
I felt an empty hole,
My soul couldn’t bear the thought,
Of not being a whole.
Third time I tried,
To get my emotions out,
And was met with the opposite,
Love without a doubt.
The parasite grows larger,
Each and every day,
I can’t cure it,
It won’t go away.
When we first met it was tiny,
A speck of dust,
Now it’s ocean-sized,
A sea of love and lust.
It’s an obsession,
My addiction to you,
Without you I’m broken,
My body needs you.
Without your light,
I am blind,
You travel through my brain,
Straight Across My Mind.
You’re the only one that makes me see,
What I could really be,
I’m nothing without you,
You’re better off without me.
My feelings are strong,
But my words are weak,
Just to get your attention,
I have to scream them from a mountain peak.
Without you the world is colorless,
Gray and bland,
I’ve tried for so long,
Ten years just to understand.
The cancer keeps growing,
As the hours go by,
I can’t stop it,
I won’t even try.
I can’t control my fascination,
With the beauty that is you,
It’s unstoppable, unbreakable,
Nothing anyone can do.
Take a trip through my conscience,
There’s plenty of thoughts about you to find,
You’re always in my head,
Straight Across My Mind.
It’s hard to survive without you,
Every day’s a grind,
Can’t stop thinking about you,
Straight Across My Mind.
