We Lost

Together we were flying kites
so close you were to me
together we felt the same
I read it in your face

One day a kitten walked home with you
black and sweet, I knew I'd never be
alone again
then with the sound of glass wall breaking
it ran away right through the open door
and it was your fault

That day changed everything
I was trying to forget
the great disillusion
you cut off the kite that flew so high
you clipped my wings and shattered
the image I had of my life

Serenity of passing hours
I didn't think that they would ever end
I missed the signs
you stood beside me for a moment
your urge was stronger that the will to stay
so you went away

Alone and confused
so many thoughts ran through my head
I knew my childhood was over
I couldn't comprehend I was misled
I was misled

I don't want to feel ashamed
you didn't make me proud
the great disillusion
maybe I didn't try enough
to take the blame, to face it
now I'll never know
never know

Alone and confused
so many thoughts ran through my head
I knew my childhood was over
I couldn't comprehend I was misled
I was misled
