For Far Too Long

Contributed by kidpoet_213 on Wednesday, 12th January 2005 @ 11:22:40 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Life is like a jigsaw puzzle
A mystery if you will.
There are those who seek to solve the riddle.
Find the absolution but still
You must try and find an end to a puzzle
Where a few pieces are missing...

You've been carrying this burden upon your heart
For far too long.
You've been hurting inside
For far too long.
All I know is...
If I could take all your pain upon myself
I'd do it in a heartbeat babe.
'Cause you've been trapped within yourself
For far too long.

Here and there there and here.
Youve looked everywhere.
Youre wondering if youll ever find them?
Maybe if you look deep down inside
Youll find the absolution there?
The missing pieces to the jigsaw
And the mystery of the ages will be solved.
But still its like a thriller with some loose pages gone.

You've been carrying this burden upon your heart
For far too long.
You've been hurting inside
For far too long.
All I know is...
If I could take all your pain upon myself
I'd do it in a heartbeat babe.
'Cause you've been trapped within yourself
For far too long.

Maybe one day youll put it all together.
Reveal a whole new picture of your life.
As the pieces of the jigsaw finally drop into place.
Piece by piece bit by bit
All the pieces of your life fit.

You've been carrying this burden upon your heart
For far too long.
You've been hurting inside
For far too long.
All I know is...
If I could take all your pain upon myself
I'd do it in a heartbeat babe.
'Cause you've been trapped within yourself
For far too long.

The mystery is finally solved
The absolution has finally come.
The questions finally answered
The jigsaw is finally done.

For far too long
Youve been punishing yourself
For the actions of others in your life.
For the vile and hideous things that have been done.
Things that are so unforgivable
You wonder how youll ever move on?

If I could take all of your hurting all of your pain
All of these things away from your mind your body... your soul...
You know I would!
I'd do it in a heartbeat babe!
Even if it meant you lived and I died!
Living free of all the pain and strife
Is long over due in your life.
It's been that way...
For far too long.
