woke up slow this morning to quiet walls and a sunlight flood.
|
this place it seems so empty
|
and everything except for this wait has left me.
|
try not to dwell on this time.
|
how long can it last?
|
hold your breath and close your eyes.
|
the pain will pass.
|
try to rise above the distance of all that you want
|
and soon you'll know the why.
|
why and for what.
|
for the sake of a love like no other.
|
for something we've never known.
|
for the hope of another chance at happiness.
|
we forsake.
|
i've watched the colors fade where windows cast their shape.
|
the same way i have changed in the light of these dark days.
|
i believe in happiness and in love that never fails
|
but the longer i wait here the more they just seem like a fairy tale.
|
i need you to save me.
|
you seem beyond a stones throw.
|
helpless hands tied.
|
i try but this garden's overgrown on the inside.
|
try to rise above the distance of all that i want and remember the why.
|
why and for what
|
