As time goes by there's nothing left waiting for you
It's about time for you to realize the truth
Lifetimes ago
There was something I could see
Someone I could touch
Someone I could be
Distant ties are severed
Under storms they could not weather
And no guiding light points me home
Silence are you foe or friend?
A catch of breath or breathing's end?
You ought to let me know
When the time is right
And the sun can show
Through the drops of rain
Clouding my vision
I can't let it go
Why am I alone?
It feels so much colder
I must let it go
Oceans away from you
Oceans away through the storm
If this is summer
Then why's the wind so cold?
I live in centripetal emotion
But I long to break this curve
The balance is real
The core, the whole
It could never be in the way you had percieved
The bitter coming down from impossible highs
The dialogue incomplete
Twists in life the plot device
Cant keep marking pages with a fading face
Close the book or turn the page
A chapter that has ended
A bittersweet pretending
One can only hope for a better ending
