Kings

Stuck between the shades of shame
You left in my head
I am faithless, stuck in the dark
These bones are riddled in defeat
So step backwards, far away from the disease
Will we be set free

How it plagues me
This distance from our hearts
That we keep
Circling x3
Just above our heads
Could we ever guess
All the pain it brings
This distance between you and me
Circling x2
My body is gone
But my heart still holds on to you

All the times that I could've tried
To gain a little closure
But I still see your eyes in mine
Reflections burden my time
Another season comes and goes
Another year I hold down these thoughts

When will I let go
When will I let this go
I won't stay afloat
if I fall in this alone

I should've known
I should've known
That you would have your own plans
I don't wanna make believe
But where do I go from here

Trapped between the memories 
Of what I thought would always be
We watch our walls cave in
These lies we paint 
in hopes of  forgiveness
Rejected, lost in the sands
Of our past

If our world's are not meant to be 
Then why do our paths cut across 
Like the same old scars 
We've held for so long
I should've kept this alone

How it plagues me
This distance from our hearts
That we keep
Circling x3
Just above our heads
Could we ever guess
All the pain it brings
This distance between you and me
Circling x2
My body is gone
And I can't go own

I should have kept my opinion 
To myself just like
You always do. x2
