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 “
