Analysis of Completely Incomplete



I wake up day to day,
Knowing soon you will be gone.
I know that you will leave me,
But what are you waiting on?
Its obvious you don't care,
So why even try?
And the pain from our separation,
Will make me want to die.
I guess I've lost a part of me,
While trying to be with you.
And no matter how hard I try,
You'll never love me too.
So I'd rather you go now,
And I'll just admit defeat.
Because I'll have to live my life without you,
I'm completely incomplete.
