insomniac to the weight of regret          
           I'm inclined to withhold.

I still remember how she'd dance
How she moved with poignant grace
The look of serenity on her face
Touching places you can't see
Her dancers feet blending to beats
I still remember how she danced
How the music filled her glance
I still remember how he took it all
I see it everyday
In the mirror on the wall

I breathe easy when you're away
That's how I want it to stay
I know if you come back
I'll slowly waste and fade to black
You shut out my light
Cover my mouth, drown me in night
Strip off my name and who I am
To you I'm fearful to stand
You coax me up to tear me down
Not a single soul hears a sound
I know if you come back
I'll slowly waste and fade to black

I dream of you all the time.

And the good thing is, I get to see your smiling face and know you're not in any pain.

I dream of you all the time.

And the bad thing is, you're not there when I wake up.
