A dream of you got my attention
A dream about someone significant, capturing attention and emotions.
Desperation has brought me here

Saw my breath cause the air was cold

Cause you're not here when I need you most
Expressing the absence of the person when needed the most, possibly in challenging moments.
You said it's okay
Recalling a reassurance from the person that everything is okay.
I'm with you in the silence
Finding solace in the silence, feeling a connection with the person despite their absence.
In the things that we did
Reflecting on shared experiences and actions with the person.
And the way that we left this
Addressing the way the relationship or connection ended.

Transitioning to a quieter, more contemplative state.
A chill runs down my spine
Experiencing a physical reaction, possibly fear or unease.
Oh god how I have missed her
Expressing a deep longing for the person, highlighting the impact of their absence.
Throw me a lifeline
Pleading for support or guidance, likened to a lifeline.
Sometimes I can't breathe
Feeling suffocated or overwhelmed at times.
It's like I can't take this
Conveying the difficulty of coping with the situation.
Why am I still here
Ruminating on the lingering question of existence in the absence of the person.
When you're gone I don't exist
Emphasizing a sense of non-existence when the person is no longer present.
The cemetery

A place where dead friends live
Describing the cemetery as the dwelling place of departed friends.
I'll see you someday

Heres all I have to give
Offering all that the speaker has, possibly emotions or memories, as a tribute to the departed.
