Today, the sun sets with you
Tomorrow, it will rise with you
Through the warm night
The cold rain will fall lifeless
Heavy as the weight of silence
It will press against the walls of my heart
That you so easily tore down
With your sweet innocence
I've not worked for days
There's no muse to look to
And the nights are wordless
There's no magic left in me
This desolation has signaled no end
It is heard in the chorus of songbirds
It is heard in the heavy heart
When the silence lulls me to sleep
Today, it is your memory
That takes over
The body
Disturbing the peace
To immortalize the pain of losing beauty and joy
Losing a friend
Losing a lover
With soft eyes and strong arms
I write the words, both thin and dead
Holding myself up with burnt out cigarettes
To be drenched in sorrows of the coming days
And to be mourning the loss of love
While awash in the sea
So, I shed the thin disguise, engulfed by the rain
To say my last, earnest, truthful goodbye, through a voice
It is the fragments of a soul that you hear
A tear that hangs here, I assure you
Near my heart, like a faint droplet
The cold rain falls upon the warm earth where angels once flew
It reminds me of you, your touch meant to shed this rough exterior
The storm that often leaves you more lost than before
It consumed me with fear, I've tried to free myself from
The little heart knows the lies I've told it
So, rage hangs heavy on the soul, eternally
In this life, loneliness walks with my every stride
And so is blindness - a shadow over the soul
That it is always the same story
The same goal
I'd never have known the eclipse over the mind
Will form patterns on this tangled soul
Clenching this throat
Till I suffocate
I've seen the patterns appear time and time again
But I can't stop them
From unleashing a world of pain
I expected the same, this time, too
But I am always too late
To show that I care
If you only knew
How much I gave
In my constant battle
To let go and hold on
This is a free spirit, you see
And you are free, too
I know this much
Free from me
That's what I want, truly
If we meet again
You're the horizon
Chained to my broken heart
You're the horizon
And I'm holding up my sails for you
You're the horizon
I'm chained to the sea
For eternity
I'm holding you in my heart, always
