i came crashing and burning
like tidal waves in a storm
trying to wash away any parts of you
and when it all came down to it
when i thought you never left
you weren’t there from the start
not where i was at the very least
in a fairytale of my own creation
the memories fluorescent and bright
the future filled with promise
the past nothing but a bad dream
but everything comes to an end
the clock finally stops
and all that’s left
is the bitter taste of what once was
