The sky keeps staring at me,
Frozen in the tracks,
(Nothing else to see,)
And when I move my face left,
You're always standing there,
(A shadow I can't see,)
And even then I can't trace,
You're walking away.
I put my ears to the ground,
Always pushing down,
(Nothing I can hear,)
I found the worst half in me,
I'm cut off at the knees,
(Can't even take a stand,)
Against your words and beliefs,
We didn't want to freeze.
(All of the years
(Leaving me here,
(Gun-shy,)
I don't want to say it all again,
(The pain,
(Losing my aim,)
I never seem to see,
(And why?)
Do I always feel it all the same.
(And why haven't we changed?)
(Story to blame?)
The blisters in my eyes,
(Recite,)
A guide that has only led me stray,
(All of my wrongs,)
(You know it's wrong,)
And even as I limp,
(You smile.)
The cold keeps tearing at me,
Slowing down my blood,
(Unable to speak,)
I left my mind long ago,
Choosing something false,
(Always letting go,)
And when I try to face you,
You're walking away.
(All of the years
(Leaving me here,
(Gun-shy,)
I don't want to say it all again,
(The pain,
(Losing my aim,)
I never seem to see,
(And why?)
Do I always feel it all the same.
(And why haven't we changed?)
(Story to blame?)
The blisters in my eyes,
(Recite,)
A guide that has only led me stray,
(All of my wrongs,)
(You know it's wrong,)
And even as I limp,
(You smile.)
