Jagged Edges

i see her face it lights up the night
she's like a star sparkling so bright
i cannot touch her i cannot reach her
i cannot save her
my chest becomes heavy
my soul now broken
i try to push it all away
in my heart she seems to stay
the heartache she has caused
pointing out all my flaws
i cannot swallow
the warm tears slide down my face
scarring it with feelings of disgrace
the drugs have finally got it all
now who will be there when she falls
i still pray each night and everyday
that this shining star will win this fight
miles apart but always holding
a smalll piece of my heart
i toss and turn when i learn
she has set me free
i guess that's the way it needs to be
