It has been like this for a while and
since you have been gone all I can do...

My mind has taken flight
I lay here in solitary confinement...

My heart sat dormant
Like dust covering an open book's pages...

And in this vortex we were crashing
Twisting bodies - limbs were thrashing...

I never signed my life away,
I always knew I could...

Turn yours eyes to better men
And wonder is no one left...

Now I'll never know
The sound of your heart beat...

Why wish that we had met sooner,
Begin to list the possibilities...

Hello Darkness, my old friend
It is potentially a beautiful day...

The days today are different, varied yet not so...
The sun still sets and the moon still rises...

You should know I have
Yet enough time to proclaim...

No bullets could ever touch us
Our heads held high in glory...
