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
