Flip a ladder upside-down and tell me where you climb to
You come to the same destination, but don’t dare argue
That it could’ve been different, it could’ve been right
And your feelings are telling you to look away from the light

That is her face, and it is blindingly apparent
To which I realize that all is viewed is transparent
Should I run? Should I flee?
Saints preserve us! The choking glory
And now my heart shrinks so itty bitty tiny
Sweat glistens on my face, ever so shiny
As I realize that I am turning reverse red
Is my heart dead? No, I think not
But my love surely has run out, and there was quite a lot
Don’t give me that look, I tell you again
It was not you, ’twas me, my beautiful friend
And I look at you closer, I gaze at you once more
Oh hell! Oh curses! I run out the door
Listening to my mind rattling, and I know nothing again
So I take to my thoughts; music pours from my den
Of solitude, of singleness, of loneliness, of fear
A room without you in it, a room without a soul
A room made out of ice, a room without a friend
A room colored blue, a room seen as black
My heart rekindles itself, the fire is back
No love has gone away, and I hope to see you soon another day.
