I'm rising Then falling twice as fast and twice as far There is a presence that follows me wherever I go He always taunts me, intrigues me, leaves me His touch is clammy yet satisfying Yet the more I enjoy his presence the less of myself is here It moves to a happier place Full of love and life And love ... I am not there I can see it but it is unattainable I have become chained in the darkness by his presence A caress of my cheek An accidental nudge To the point where even a look feels like his embrace I sink deeper Deeper deeper . All I can do is sit back and watch the cycle continue There is hope It is right there in the light, where I am I am there But I am not A piece of me is still chained in the darkness, never to return Because I can save him I can save the presence If I stay long enough maybe he will join me in the light Is it possible?

Unattainable
I'm rising Then falling twice as fast and twice as far There is a presence that follows me wherever I go He always taunts me, intrigues me, leaves me His touch is clammy yet satisfying Yet the more I enjoy his presence the less of myself is here It moves to a happier place Full of love and life And love ... I am not there I can see it but it is unattainable I have become chained in the darkness by his presence A caress of my cheek An accidental nudge To the point where even a look feels like his embrace I sink deeper Deeper deeper . All I can do is sit back and watch the cycle continue There is hope It is right there in the light, where I am I am there But I am not A piece of me is still chained in the darkness, never to return Because I can save him I can save the presence If I stay long enough maybe he will join me in the light Is it possible?
