Spiraling through memories A painful time in which my face can't show Intensity ranging from love to anger A labyrinth of turmoil A temporary blissful high And a raging isolated low I wonder when you let go You held on real tight As the night grew piercing cold Two hearts set on fire Shedding light unto our souls Remnants of ash still linger upon weary roads Days travel past... I wonder when you let go Racing up from the fire Amidst a vibrant glow Alas, feelings of relief are suddenly bestowed They pick at my mourning They tolerate my woes They motivate me when I stand on my own But even so... I wonder when you let go Maybe in a latent sigh An inexplicable blink of the eye Or a howling, youthful cry Did we let our feelings show For all we wanted, we didn't truly know And in yearning for a love that couldn't grow I wonder when I let go

Shattered Consciousness
Spiraling through memories A painful time in which my face can't show Intensity ranging from love to anger A labyrinth of turmoil A temporary blissful high And a raging isolated low I wonder when you let go You held on real tight As the night grew piercing cold Two hearts set on fire Shedding light unto our souls Remnants of ash still linger upon weary roads Days travel past... I wonder when you let go Racing up from the fire Amidst a vibrant glow Alas, feelings of relief are suddenly bestowed They pick at my mourning They tolerate my woes They motivate me when I stand on my own But even so... I wonder when you let go Maybe in a latent sigh An inexplicable blink of the eye Or a howling, youthful cry Did we let our feelings show For all we wanted, we didn't truly know And in yearning for a love that couldn't grow I wonder when I let go
