My breath collapses with the world around me
Shattered reflections and contradiction.
My grip is slipping from the sand above
And it's a long way down.
Fate slips it's fingers around my racing heart
Shaking but standing, my consciousness is disbanding.
Tell me I'm dreaming, I must be dreaming.
This structure's unstable, resting our hope on this unsound foundation.
The silence is torture; please tell me I'm not alone
That I'm not too far gone and not too far from home.
The air in my lungs escapes me and though I have no strength left to stand
I will scream your name.
Breathless to the distance in the hopes that it will
Find your ears and bring me back to you.
Breaths from the end, desperate,
Screaming your name, just silence
Wake me up.
My eyes are open, but I swear I'm sleeping
Wake me up.
I stand alone, so stationary in the space between
A blink and a tear
My echoes keep me company
Please hear me.
My voice can't breach this distance between us or so it seems
Please here me now
'Cause my voice can't breach this distance
