When the Music Ends

by Rachelle Estar Lietz


What happens when the music ends

And I'm left empty once again

When the silence fills the room

And my mind

What happens when there's nothing left

But deep, dark loneliness

And I feel like sinking away

Away from myself, away from this mess

What happens when the music ends

Once again

And no one's there to pick me up

And hold me close, hold me tight

And I start to fade in the dark of night

I close my eyes in fear

Wishing to stay here

Not wanting to lose the last of me

In this deep sea of lonely

And in my mind I run

Run away from this moment

The moment when the music ends

And the silence fills the air

And the lonely comes and steals me away

Away from all I know and all I am

What happens when the music ends...

And I'm left empty once again

What happens when the music ends...

And the silence fills my mind

What happens when the music ends...

And the lonely takes me away

What happens when the music ends...

And I'm left empty once again

...

What happens when the music ends
