I'm wandering lost
I must have lost my mind
Ten seconds of distraction (now this lack of reaction)
In search of attention
And approval of the lost
Now I live in loss
Of the very one (dearest one)
The only one
I must have kept in mind
Now those eyes staring blind (I can’t see no more life)
Ten seconds of foolishness
Disastrous dullness
It must have been my life
Please, my baby, sleep tight
I can’t forget (unyielding regret)
Echoes in my head
(How could I have neglected the one who I should have protected?)
With all those words left unsaid
Now I long for the past
Breathing feels so wrong
Now we both belong
To the dead
Look!
Hourglasses floating over deep dark seas!
And when you look to the skies above
Think of me, as my life was just a short sigh of love
Here in the silent, I stand my ground
With all I’ve lost and what I’ve found
No outer God did hear my cries
Fragments of truth and whispered lies
A slave to the years, an ego clown
Mourning for dreams that rise then fall
I reach through the dark for a piece of me
A glimpse of who I was, or could I be
Through the looking glass, I can’t see myself
A stranger who smiles on a dusty shelf
The future, a thought we cannot name
The memory, a shadow caught on a frame
I’ve chased every answers promising lore
Only to find odd locked dark doors
But just for tonight, I’ll let it be
