Two steps from the empty dreaming Something moving behind my eyes Hiding from the hollow madness Feel his spirit watching me Sharing all the hopeful wishes Sharing what was empathy Entering my mind to cover Waiting for the time to change Drawing my lines behind the border Awakening the vanity He gave the ashes to my father The familiar face is far from here The poison left and fled the shelter Put him in the ground to stay All that you needed a face that wasn’t numb A mask that didn’t lie, a life that didn’t die
