And there I left you I imagine frozen Arms extended Half an embrace Your other half turned And escaped into space I cut it off quick Both cold and completely Distance the drug Running the pain The thought of thinking I could only abstain I bleached the memory Ultimately utter White washed the wound Erased our story Refused to believe It as allegory But the facts still stand It was killed by your hand So though I ran Please understand It was not for freedom or glory

Disappearing Man
And there I left you I imagine frozen Arms extended Half an embrace Your other half turned And escaped into space I cut it off quick Both cold and completely Distance the drug Running the pain The thought of thinking I could only abstain I bleached the memory Ultimately utter White washed the wound Erased our story Refused to believe It as allegory But the facts still stand It was killed by your hand So though I ran Please understand It was not for freedom or glory
