When did it all disappear?

Will I ever know?

Or does a piece of it still dwell within me?

Holding on as it slips through my fingers

So near yet still out of reach

The darkest hours never tasted so sweet

Bury your words with the silence they made

So tainted by these blisters

And tempting me more as my eyes start to bleed

 

I’ll surrender to you

Lost in your dreams

I’ll find a way to bring you back to my reality

There’re only pieces that remain

Maybe I’ll find the key

 

I’m still waiting

To feel her cursed embrace

 

I know you’re out there somewhere

I know I’ve heard your voice here before

Getting lost was the poison in your eyes

Your absence has built up the void

Can I not sever the void in my mind?

Can I not spit out the poison inside?

Slowly fading the lifeline away

Your past stains the words you speak

 

This path is endless

Timeless the reminder cast by separation

Always awaiting your return

 

I still hear your voice

I still hear you breathe

I knew I could trust you

I knew you’d never leave

 

I’ve searched the darkest night to bring you back to me

Never to find you

I’ve travelled the oceans

Split apart the sea

I still cannot hear you

I still cannot see

I thought you were lost

A face I’d never see again

Your memory haunts me

Let me breathe it in

It’s taken forever

It’s taken me so long to see

I can’t hold on to you

But I can’t set you free
