Lit cigarette sits in the ashtray Bottle caps scattered all around Silence the only sound She takes a drag as he takes a sip Next to each other but a million miles apart Out in the world it's a shell made of rainbows and butterflies Hand holding and loving stares Behind these four walls it all falls apart She wonders where she's gone What used to feel so right now feels so wrong He looks in her eyes to find the light that's gone away There's nothing he won't do to bring her back But it's out of his hands He'll be patient, he'll wait In his heart he knows she'll be back one day She traces get steps but seems to have lost her way He can see she cares Even through the blank stares He can see her under there

Back to You
Lit cigarette sits in the ashtray Bottle caps scattered all around Silence the only sound She takes a drag as he takes a sip Next to each other but a million miles apart Out in the world it's a shell made of rainbows and butterflies Hand holding and loving stares Behind these four walls it all falls apart She wonders where she's gone What used to feel so right now feels so wrong He looks in her eyes to find the light that's gone away There's nothing he won't do to bring her back But it's out of his hands He'll be patient, he'll wait In his heart he knows she'll be back one day She traces get steps but seems to have lost her way He can see she cares Even through the blank stares He can see her under there
Still in the works
