Sometimes I fail you
But to your surprise
I could be the truth
In your whitest of lies
Though you poison my mind
With each drop I despise
I care not for her name
But I drown in those eyes

I can show you the steps
That you first took alone
I can ripple in time
With the skip of a stone
I am all you have seen
I am all you've been shown
I am yesterday's news
I am dinosaur bone

As you look to the future
I'm stuck in the past
Sometimes my reflection
Is all shattered glass
Like pieces of puzzles
In shadows you cast
I have been by your side
How you grew up so fast

Still here I am now
In your mind, out of sight
Invisible werewolf
More power at night
When I bathe in the glow
Of your faintest moonlight
Then a radiant dawn
Makes my phoenix ignite

When I carry your gifts
Into each present day
The dreams you recall
Are the ones I replay  
As you sift through the sands
Of these oceans astray
To find her again
Let me show you the way
