Pulsing like a drum
On your vocal chords you hum
Hum a tune that haunts my soul
Bringing me from a high to such a low

The ghouls of my past rejoined at once
All in the matter of a passing stance
Nostalgia brought back with a bitter sting
Of what we could have been,
It's always what we could have been
We keep on our act, there it is; the grin

The infamous hug and kiss of respect
With a hint of I want to take you in the back
Follow I would without a hesitation
Without a inch to leave for separation

Our bodies would collide with a wrath
Years gone by to deny ourselves this craft
Path after path, yet ours will never cross
Forbidden or broken the bridges are lost

Kept my eyes on you the entire night
Hoping you'd send mine at least just one smile
So I would know I was not the only mind
Waiting to find your eyes trying to find mine
Waiting and nothing, things are never aligned

No ones ever before made me cry with a song
Until tonight when you took my eyes along
Along for the ride of a lifetime or the road to hell
Whichever you'd prefer to call it, the ride I ride alone
As I always will, alone with my heart as a stone
