and nightmares terrorized my dreams,
I felt the devil took my soul to keep
as despair through my body did teem.
When I awoke I thought I couldn’t survive
and I felt so terribly alone,
I decided I didn’t want to be alive
if I had to live on my own.
But then your face floated through my mind
and I remembered some things that you’d said.
And a reason to live I did find
as I replayed memories of you in my head.
I realized I’d never truly be by myself
when you are always in my heart,
so you should really congratulate yourself –
because of you the world I didn’t depart.
