In a momentâs breath I stopped frozen beside
A still frame of you in the open sky
And I fell into a brief dream and Iâm lost in the atmosphere
I found that death breeds hell and itâs never enough
Iâm sitting here waiting for a fucking sign to come
If I had one chance, now Iâd better run towards the streaming sunlight
If you were still here, would you recognize me now?
The years that have passed havenât paid their toll
Trapped in disillusion and Iâm waning
I canât escape these paintings
That haunt the keepsakes
Reminding me of the time when you were here
Last year you said thereâd be a day youâd leave
And I start to question all meanings
That were hidden in a cold reprieve and Iâm lost in an open maze
And then I searched with a never ending passion
In resentment of the ashes
Do the lives weâve led really even matter anyway?
In a secondâs thought, one chance tonight
I canât keep this crush locked up inside
Do you know what itâs like to never say how you feel?
Itâs a secret that I canât seem to reveal
For the time is lost and the price was steep
It was something I couldnât guarantee
Itâs a call to arms with the world on high
And I spoke too late, too afraid to try
At the chapterâs end and the storyâs close
One final word is read
And Iâll look out over the distant city skyline
This nostalgia, itâs fucking breaking me down
Itâs breaking me down againâ¦
