A meeting with blunt desistance The common ground a cerebral malady Drowning in contemplation of a new void to fill My presence could never mend what's been shattered Your presence could never mend all the fractures I'm defective, You are broken Despondency leads to this tide Separated by time, Severed by distance Pessimistic and sick at heart This was not of my volition Circumstances dictate I turn away Leaving, never to return I will stay away I will stay away My presence could never mend what's been shattered My presence could never mend all the fractures I'm defective, You are broken And now we find ourselves parting in a world without end There is nothing left, but to say goodbye forever
