From Afar

I spoke - you cried And I know you hurt inside Knowing it's all not right But giving up for peace of mind We loved - we love Trapped together The silk now so inanimate Like strand upon strand of hardened healing We pray - we sigh And wish time would not hurt us Curse our reasons for they are the demons All the fake revelations and treasons seemed to change with the seasons The heart the moon the soul the scars They have all become ours As we sit behind bars and gaze at our love From afar ... From afar.
