Story Behind The Song
I actually wrote this song after a family member passed away, but I didnt want the theme of the song to be so obvious. I want to describe someones feelings whether they lost a family member, friend, or just a broken heart from a break up and or friend leaving town.
Song Description
Overcoming the sorrow that fulfills ones heart when someone leaves them. Being lonely and withouth a certain someone causes your world to be dark. There is a struggle within ones self to find the light and go on without the pain and heartbreak.

Lyrics
Its been hard thinking about the road ahead
Is it wrong to keep this image in my head
Feels like the sun's gone down on me
Everything changes suddenly
Today will define my history....
Its what you wanted
Im here but falling apart.
I don't want to drown myself in sorrow
Its been dark since you went away
I wanna forget about this tomorrow
But its not the same, no its not the same
You're not here___
No you're not here with me.
Every time that you fall into my arms
I close my eyes and hope this feeling is for real
The phone never rings anymore
When it does I need you more
I'm being closed in by all four walls....
The sky has been crying
Black tears, the daylight is dying.
(CHORUS)
Blow up the sun!! Blow up the sky!!
You left me with nothing to prove to me why
Its not who you are that makes it this way
Its where you are that causes the shade_____.
Every time that you fall into my arms
I close my eyes, pretend it's real_____.
