I'll Be On My Way

I feel cold inside
despite the heat
Feel pleasure, yet pain
Love once made me whole
I’m now incomplete
and broken again
I look in your eyes
Which once warmed my soul
The fire’s now gone
There’s heat in your touch
But love is not there
It’s time to move on
(prechorus)
I must find the strength to run
I’m not the type to just have fun
(chorus)
Your promises mean nothing now
I need to break away somehow
Love is what I had but lost
Now it’s time to pay
I will not stay yours to use
I may be hurt, my ego bruised
But without love’s the meaning’s lost
I’ll now be on my way
An empty touch
Can’t fill the holes
When love is gone
Hiding my pain
I act out my roles
And try to move on
Ignoring the pain
I put on a smile
And face each new day
I know I was right
To push you aside
You were just in my way
(prechorus)
Within my chest my heart still bleeds
I’m dead and yet I live
And yet to taste what love can be
Again my heart I’d give
(chorus)
Your promises mean nothing now
I need to break away somehow
Love is what I had but lost
Now it’s time to pay
I will not stay yours to use
I may be hurt, my ego bruised
But without love’s the meaning’s lost
I’ll now be on my way
