Casting Shadows

I heard the news today
And I don't think I like this
I left so much to say

But I can't even speak my mind
Or even breathe this time

Tell me what to do about it
Tell me what to say
Tell me how I could have helped at all

With no warning
No reason why
The questions pray for something
The ending
Of what's left behind
More questions
Your flame will cast a shadow in time

Was there no other way?
Pain can be divisive
Another broken chain
And nothing feels the same
The void before the blame

Tell me what to do about it
Tell me what to say
Tell me how I could have helped at all

With no warning
No reason why
The questions pray for something
The ending
Of what's left behind
More questions
Your flame will cast a shadow in time

So close
Time will never change us
So far
We'll never be again
In time
Our thoughts will rearrange us
In peace
Your memory remains
Remains
Your memory remains
Remains
Your memory remains

With no warning
No reason why
The questions pray for something
The ending
Of what's left behind
More questions
Your flame will cast a shadow in time
