You and Me

You and me Such a divine sound in a deaf world Where not a soul is left to whisper a word Its been ages since I’ve felt the sun on my face Is there a sun? Hard to tell in such a dark place Where the air is thin And the walls are closing in Comforted by hopelessness and hopelessness alone You and me, just a thought lost long ago. You and me Haha brings a smile on these cement lips And yet tears at the seams of former rips Easily torn, in a place that’s made me far from strong You and me, smiles don’t last long. You and me Forgotten who we are Yet we still remember these old scars I know where im at but I still feel lost You and me, such a hopeless cause. You and me The only thing left The only thing I’ve always kept The only thing that stands when everything else bends The only thing yet to end. So wipe those tears, don’t let them see you cry You and me, we’ll be alright We always do last the night.
