All I've Got

I wrote this as a theme song for an original character of mine from a roleplay. Her name is Aria. Enjoy!

I pray I’m not close to breaking
Only got a paper-thin thread to hold on
And I fear that I’m falling
This darkness just goes on and on

Can you see a light in the darkness?
Because I’m afraid that I’m blinded
This didn’t go the way I planned
Just put the icing on the cake - add a lie to it
I’ll say my last goodbyes and kiss you goodnight

This is all I’ve got left
You gave something that I’ll never forget
And my body can’t help but ache for more
You promised me and you delivered
All my hopes are gone
And at the end of the day my longing just goes on and on

I once had a nice life
Not the best, but what can I say?
What more do you expect of me?
You’re saying you don’t want me
You can see the fear in my eyes
Coat it with some pretending
Maybe the bravado will let me go on

I can’t fight for myself
Look in these eyes, and what do you see?
A girl that cannot fight alone
Maybe I’ll just drown in the endless black lies of the sea
Open up my heart
And find endless desire

You say I look like a nice girl
Well, what lies behind these long-lashed eyes?
Should I run - or should I cry?
What would be the alternative?
Do you really want to know?
I’ll break - and it’ll show
This is all I’ve got left
You gave something that I’ll never forget
And my body can’t help but ache for more
You promised me and you delivered
All my hopes are gone
And at the end of the day my longing just goes on and on

Stop the panic, stop the pain
Do whatever you want
I’m under your mercy - just please, end the pain
I’m asking for nothing else
End my longing, end my strife

Do you want at your feet?
Do you want me at the end of your bed?
Just tell me where you want to go
And yeah, I’ll follow
Got nowhere else worthy to go

You say I’m with the wrong people
But can you blame me when it’s all I got?
I had nothing else to hold on to
So what did you expect?

This is all I’ve got left
You gave something that I’ll never forget
And my body can’t help but ache for more
You promised me and you delivered
All my hopes are gone
And at the end of the day my longing just goes on and on

This is all I’ve got left
This is all I’ve got left
This is all I’ve got left
This is all I’ve got left

End
