And even though I believe it, Those words would never grace your ear And even if I wanted it, It's everything I fear. If I could swear to you up and down, by the moon and the stars and the sky I would swear to you it's fake, I've learned to hush those words with lullaby. If I could keep denying it, If only I could see beyond my eyes, I still deny the mess I've made, I would give you reasons for this lie. If only I didn't just stand there, Watching you slowly fade to black, If only I could've stopped you, Lepidoptera, I only want you back. My dreams still keep you alive, Full-bloom and full of force, My concious mind couldn't fathom this, And so you've gone without remorse. I couldn't tell you what you wanted, So you've gone and left me here, Now I'm left with only your memory, And that's everything I fear.

I couldn't tell you what you wanted, So you've gone and left me here, Now I'm left with only your memory, And that's everything I fear.
