So they carried you away.
And charted your insides
While I waited for you,
Worried sick
As white walls graced your hollow eyes; so lost.
And so I'll never let you go.
I wouldn't wanna leave you sobbing, searching for yourself.
Some kind of truth to ease your troubled mind.
And while the world keeps moving on,
I'll always sing your song,
So careless
Oh so free from the restraints
That captivate your absent, lonely eyes.
So you got carried away.
You couldn't find a remedy, so bittersweet.
Your empathy is hidden in that rage, so delicate.
I wanna meet you anywhere and tell you its okay.
We are a force of nature, and we scream when no one's listening.
Our place on the moon, gets covered sometimes
By a blanket of rain, and the tears in our eyes.
I'll dream of a day when you and I can fly
And be free of the pain and the stars in our eyes.
We'll be dancing again.
[My darling,
I'm waiting for you.
How long is a day in the dark?
Or a week....]
