Traumatic Event

a long time ago
you went off to seek your soul
disappeared out of my life
with a promise to return
but you got lost on your way
the girl I knew never came back
you got trapped, lost inside yourself
a shadow of your former self
so I still try to figure out
all about this traumatic event
which changed your whole life completely
and sent you off into la-la land
your life turned upside down
all provoked by tragic events
it was too much to cope with
it was too much to go on
I still try to reach you
reach the girl I used to know
I still refuse to accept
that you are a soulless shell
