i pray for the day i tell you
that i never meant a second
all your replacement mannequins
no matter how carefully crafted
or beautifully molded
will never hold a flame

someday they'll be clarity
when i'm soaring heights you'll never reach
in places you'll never see
your heart will be hammering
a loss you'll never comprehend

every lazy day that passes you
like clouds that never rain
the soul in you that breathes for it
your voice only a clap of thunder
lightning energy decays
