Lyrics I Have written for a friends piece of music.
Your hand print in the dust is all that’s left,
these hollow walls, these empty corridors,
They’re still screaming your name,
singing your every breath.
My own ignorance created my solitude
this peace, this tranquillity,
its making my mind stagnant
Drowning in this sea of nostalgia,
the cacophony of a million lost thoughts
They echo through these halls
not a single forgotten memory
not a single sentiment falls.
the ash has settled and a grey haze paints
the canvass that is wrapped around this labyrinth
every road running to the same bitter end
every picture, every portrait the same
their faces and their features are long past,
falling through these empty hallways
I try to retrace our steps
I run my fingers across the cracks
tracing the broken walls
finding the hand print amongst the dust.
Drowning in this sea of nostalgia,
the cacophony of a million lost thoughts
They echo through these halls
not a single forgotten memory
not a single sentiment falls.
by your apathy I have come undone,
staring in the face of the black mirror
a silhouette screams back
flying on the wings of faith our world is one
but in sober skies I fall to lie in the face of reality
I still breathe for you,
do you even dream of me?
