I've been there, I have done that, I ain't saying I am part of the act. I see my steps, Blinded mistakes, Added up the visions. Why is that I continue? What do you have to grab on to? Admiring what you pursue. Give me the tools to swear my way out of this! Nothing else can make sense, Air.. air, I am here, Looking upon you, yes you, Time is what separates us. I can feel your breath, No chance in hiding away. Could have molded into anything you wanted. What is strong enough? A wooden reality, Switched focus, Break those barriers, Let's storm the fence. False hope, Had all that was needed, Spread beside me, "What got in the way" The echoes of my own dismay, Haunting my every day.
