you've written on my eyelids all the tendencies of time
And I was keeping track of it until it lost its rhyme
Today I go in circles just like every other day
And what was once connected cast a shadow in its place
Familiar was the crux to every moment I could see
A stranger to my senses but a lover come to be
And somewhere in your folly I could find a place to lie
Exist within its limits and believe I'd never die


But sooner than the thought could travel anywhere but here

I woke to find you sleeping and I had to disappear
I waited on the outside of the body you have known
In hopes that you would notice you could never be alone
I must've let the hours slip completely through my hands
I only made it back in time to watch you turn to sand
