That night in the streets of my city When I was alone He appeared to me in a whispered memory And, like fireflies, my exposed suppression was revealed Time had bound me in the threads of misery again While the aching in my chest for forgotten company Lured me into madness It recreated my sadness And he hadn't even said my name
