Rejection Kills

Fiery colours of the sundown,
Filter through a crack in my curtain.
My world has been turned upside-down,
I'm so confused, so uncertain.

Lying curled up in my bed,
No more than just a shadow.
Nursing my poor aching head,
I turn my back on the window.

Turn my back on the remaining light,
I would rather prefer the darkness.
My tears will keep me up the whole night,
I don't need sleep, I couldn't care less.

You rejected me, cruel and cold,
Now you've left me all on my own.
The darkness has it, my heart I sold,
I have nowhere where it can be shown.

Dead, my eyes never open again,
There's nothing more that I want to see.
Your rejection killed me, simple and plain.
All I needed was for you to want me.
