Since the day I let you believe, that a grand life I would provide
|
I am haunted by the failure you see before you, consuming the echo
|
To travel the road of our dreams, with my back against the wall
|
All I can do, is look the other way, and pretend that your face held a smile.
|
Not to see your sullen eyes, staring past my soul, into the darkness of night.
|
I feel I've failed you, when we both know, I never had the chance, to say hello.
|
Far away from your warmth I fade
|
Silently, I bid you farewell, and wallow in the moment
|
So very small, this distance between us, to travel so long, and gain no ground
|
The very face I see in the mirror, knows the truth behind the lies
|
For my trust, I hear the dead leaf echo, and the answer awaits us on the other side
|
Far away from your warmth I fade
|
Silently, I bid you farewell, and wallow in the moment
|
Looking back to the days when we were poor, and all we had was each other
|
You looked so sad, and almost ashamed to have me at your side
|
In circles spins my mind, and the vertigo makes me sick
|
All I can do, is look the other way, and pretend that your face held a smile.
|
Not to see your sullen eyes, staring past my soul, into the darkness of night.
|
I feel I've failed you, when we both know, I never had the chance, to say hello.
