Missing
These days are long
The nights have grown elder
Lifeless becomes this song
For you and I have given old
Don’t tell them I’m gone
Secrets spilled
Rumors speak
From your lips
They’d never leak
Though the past
Is gone and buried
There’s a remedy
We all seem to seek
No one knows we’re gone
Lights and screams
Life and dreams
Stripped the strings
Of your guitar
A mirrored image
In years of heal
Did you forget
We were but scars
A blanket of tyranny
Seems we’ve come so far
So lost and distant
And they ask you
Who you are
No one knows we’re gone
Lost
Missing
Hiding
Don’t tell them I’m gone
“When all you have is you
I hope you find yourself along the way “
