Lyrics:
too long you have been gone/
i count the days/
and moments crawl by/
in a mystifying haze/
you never knew it then, but soon you realized it/
and yes, you told me every truth, but i revised it/
i was too hard to hold your love inside my heart/
and so i had to get away, i tipped the cart/
now no more laughter in my eyes/
there's just delusion/
i find no solace in my my cries/
there's just confusion/
so i plummet/
have i learned nothing from it?/
i was lost once/
but i can overcome it/
all that i had i left 3,000 miles away/
but it was only desolation and decay/
so unaccustomed in an unfamiliar place/
yet what it meant to me has vanished into space/
i thought by coming here i'd re-write history/
and when it happened/
it was such an utter mystery/
my light's now turned on/
because you flipped my switch/
yet my worry still persists: a constant itch/
and so i sit here as each hour is stretched thin/
contemplating on this shadow of a ghost i've been/
not realizing the fragile state i'm in/
when this is over i'll know just how to begin/
too long i went and still i sat unblinking/
i could never stop myself from thinking/
of all the things that i should've said/
but i just held my tongue instead/
i just can't stand to see your pain/
it means you've lost something you must regain/
remarkable you still remain/
you tell me: listen to your heart and not your silly brain/
stood at my shore not knowing how to swim/
preoccupying paranoia made my blood run thin/
i have my memories and i have my goodbyes/
if no one shoots, then surely no one dies/
yet i had war paint on my face/
that didn't wash off, left a trace/
but you provided me the safest place/
where i could save a little grace/
my worried mind, it thinks too much/
if "this & that" then "such & such"/
can't stand it!/
gotta hand it to you, dear/
you never were one to give in to any fear/
and yes i'm seeing everyday the sacred magick/
how you & i made art out of the tragic/
i thought the sky was falling/
but it was fine/
you told me: let your spirit shine/
so we'll speak of the past no more/
we'll turn our backs and close the door/
and keep on living in the Sun/
realizing life has just begun/

We start to die as soon as we are born and go back to the place where we were torn from...to be alive is to die at the same time. (Mizero)
