iMournless
rest my head on mascara bled tissues
you said we had far too many issues
i miss you 'cos i get no sleep alone
i phone you but yer never there at home
so i chat to yer answer message voice
i need to hear yer so i got no choice
i'm all cried out and i'm dehydrated
i've ripped my soul out i'm so ill fated
life's become a horror film in 3d
never happy song and dance style routine
horror show here it comes the piercing scream
possessed by the ghost of you a bad dream
can't eat no appetite i'm losing weight
me fade away to nothing it's my fate
can't sleep too many nightmares in my head
without you no protection in my bed
can't breathe i need your kiss of love of life
alone i’m no angel with all this strife
isolated on a cloud with no wings
can't fly can only cry i try to sing
here's the thing without you there lacks a song
beat fades and a bass line that's wired wrong
we've gone on too long without melody
this song is not a song it's a broken memory
in our photos my spirit is buried
i'm so cold and heartless is what you said
but i gave it to you unconditionally
you threw it out can't give it back to me
with my hair a mess eyes red puffiness
me reflection to meself i must fess
not to let your boyishness cause distress
i’m drew drop dead gorgeous nothing less

I could really hear you performing this. Very much from the heart but really well crafted. Like it.
