We are but empty vessels,
Walking silhouettes...
I stand on the corner and contemplate,
The floor adorned in a sea of red...
The first time it was such a rush,
From the second it touched my lip...
Sorrow, when she's here with me,
A veil of happiness I'll try to lace...
I dream this night
And think of the day...
I am followed by one I know,
Who takes away my loneliness...
Flowers wither and chocolates mold,
Soon tossed away with food gone old...
The first time it was such a rush,
From the second it touched my lip...
Today as I look back at those that were lost,
People we loved whose paths we once crossed...
I lie in my bed and think
Of places I would like to go...
Haunted by an unforgiving past,
I swim in oceans of the deepest blues...
100 times will I try,
To comfort you when you cry...
