Words of Sympathy

It seems like it was just yesterday
That I saw that warm smile on your face
How long was it ago
That you left me so alone
In this empty world

I know I haven't been there
I'm so sorry, but I know
Now it's too late for words of sympathy
I've hurt you so much without realizing
That it had made you this way

Even if I collected all my tears
And replenish your once soft face
It's never going to be the same
And if I drew my blood
And run it through your veins
You won't rise to be with me again

I was so caught up in my own world
I forgot what was important to me
Now with you gone
I can barely carry on
Taking steps that's not even worth taking

Until tonight I realize
That it was because of you
That I was able to do everything
But I was so blind
I only saw what I wanted
And never had any time for you

Prayers can't help me now
And neither can you
I'm so sorry, I should have known
That without you I would just wither away
