You seem to cast a shadow like none I've ever known Before you my soul was here, after you it was gone. Nothing was ever the same for me, after you captured my heart All that remained was an empty person, with a world torn apart. Your's was a game I'd played many times before I should've known I'd lose, just so you could score. Just a little of your time was all I'd ever win For all the nights I cried to sleep grasping inner sin. My assurance of myself was never strong enough for me to know That I should've cast you out, and let your shadow go. All the years gone by, and still I can recall, the ignorant, joyous splendor of that line that made me fall. Today is full of memory, tomorrow I'll move on Reaping yesterday is all that's left, of a time that's all but gone. [This message has been edited by timothysangel1973 (09-01-2003 02:12 PM).] |
