The hands spin round
Lost time unfound
But I'm not looking
For that hint of yesterday

I'm not beating a dead horse
I feel no remorse
A friendly calm memory
Replaces the clashing of pots and pans
That was you and me

Two years and I am at peace
But that doesn't mean we shouldn't speak
Because I miss the friendship we had
But I've known for awhile how to live without it

So it is okay if I'm dismissed
If I ever extend my hand into the abyss
To try to reach you from afar
After so much time
It's nothing more than a wish
That you have a beautiful life
you my shiny armored knight
oh, I have not seen you, are you alright?

my minds gone crazy, I'm going insane
without you, but a battle in my brain.

the towns going mad because you'd gone
oh please come back, for only you I long

may it be the stars have not yet aligned
or maybe the oracle has not seen the light

if only I could see you one first or last time
then maybe I cold think of one last little rhyme

to explain how I feel about your sweet heart
we've never met but we're never apart.

I will be waiting, for you I swear.
my precious prince, I promise,  I'll be there.

when everything i have ever known
is ripped apart
you tie all the broken strands back together
in a bow and
help me
fix myself
feelin a little torn

Chaos
It's been a long day
And I'm so tired
Yet all I can do
Is lay here and cry
Not the loud kind
But the quiet tears
That hurt your throat
And fall so fast
It seems that is all
My nights are for now
Trying to make no noise
As I let it all out
I will never show
These tears to anyone
I will continue on
Pretending to be strong
During the daytime
But at night
When I'm all alone
I let them fall
In quiet waves
Until I can fall asleep
It's getting harder and harder

Chaos
My eyes, they burn
I've not slept in days
My body, it aches
From this exhaustion
But every time I close my eyes
The horrors I have seen
Unfold themselves in full colour
The most vivid nightmare
So I open them again
Only to be met with demons
The ones that follow me around
So the light goes back on
Until they fade away
And away disappears another night
In my own personal hell
So you see, my eyes, they burn
For I have not slept in days

I still miss you and I'm not sure why,
Especially when it's 2am and alone in my bed I lie,
I lie physically but also mentally by trying to tell myself I don't miss you,
But you see the truth is that the day you left the sky would never seem quite as blue,
Your lips stained my skin, and oh how your gaze made me grin,
Surely feeling the way that I did was a sin,
But if loving you too much is what made you run,
Then **** you, don't come back because I'm finally done.
