Under the shadow of the moon I buried my feelings for you. I took time to think this through- The one who held my world was you. As time took hold of our story I watched it slowly fade, A beautiful burning red Yet it became see-through. You left me behind, Erasing our past from your mind. Oh god, I wished instead To be the you who could let go. Now I’m the only one grieving. These memories became pain and sorrow. I walk a lonely procession, Shrouded in misted desolation. So under the shadow of the moon I mourned my feeling for you. As I am no longer part of your tomorrows Of these yesterdays, I let go.

Departure
Under the shadow of the moon I buried my feelings for you. I took time to think this through- The one who held my world was you. As time took hold of our story I watched it slowly fade, A beautiful burning red Yet it became see-through. You left me behind, Erasing our past from your mind. Oh god, I wished instead To be the you who could let go. Now I’m the only one grieving. These memories became pain and sorrow. I walk a lonely procession, Shrouded in misted desolation. So under the shadow of the moon I mourned my feeling for you. As I am no longer part of your tomorrows Of these yesterdays, I let go.
