I’ve understood feelings, Deciphered these words Pages spent turning, Incomplete chapter’s without cures. And so you’ve gone Released yesterday, I thought you’d come back home Miles between ourselves Slipstreams of impossibilities Boats lost on a voyage to a limited hell You hated my face; it’s yours I’m missing A difference in pain, I couldn’t tell I’m falling out of love I can’t find a roadmap This mind has misinterpreted enough If I could remember what I’ve gotten I’d know what I’ve had. There’s a store in town, Sold-out of forgiveness There’s a drug dealer near, I couldn’t buy redemption They asked me to never come back around. Weighted down a long thought Stow-away on forgetful wishes I still notice you’re gone Today is just disappearing If decision is right, I want it wrong You’re light years away, I can’t see the clearing Angels juggling a soul, Prices held high for a real prayer Your face still absent here in the cold Bankrupt on missing, I can’t pay the fare I can’t say I blame you I’ll dream I could Glass promises shattered through If you only knew I’m sick of writing every line about you. |
