I Don't Want You to Go

I've laid a blanket over my eyes
I've numbed the feeling in my stomach
I've stopped my mind from wandering
and I've shielded my heart with a shell
All so that you wouldn't see
Just all of what is happening to me.

My eyes are clouded over
and I don't want you to know
My stomach is in such pain,
but that's something I refuse to show
My mind is filled with sorrow
but you don't need to know I'm that low
My heart is slowly breaking
And I'll soon be the one to go.

I've always loved you to no end
I've always needed you around
I've longed for your presence
and I've missed you for so long
All so that you wouldn't see
Just all of what is happening to me.

My love is still never failing
but I just don't want you to know
Without you, I know I'd be lost
but that's something I refuse to show
I always want you to be near
but you don't need to know I'm that low
I've missed you for such a long time
And I don't want you to go.
