I'Ve Lost My Aura

I’ve lost my Aura Life and soul of the party We light up the room Charismatic, charming, engaging Life’s spirit incarnate That’s me and my Aura, folks We are untouchable, reigning supreme Blazing along life’s highway on our Pulsating Light tour From nowhere, the snap of the straw and an apocalyptic explosion My personal life’s reactor goes into meltdown Something has happened I am ill and I don’t know why I look in a mirror I see a face staring back at me Its eyes are black and face ashen grey Is this the man that once was me? Or is it the thing I have become? I’ve lost my Aura Face and body, contorted and wrinkled The strength has gone, spirit and soul have packed their bags No confidence, focus, energy or desire My spiritual ambience has had its brightest moments, now the light fades It only briefly dares to look straight ahead It despises its own image Confidence shattered, terrified of engagement No light anymore, gone, consumed by black nothingness Aura, I have lost you Where will I find you? What did I do? Please forgive me I need you back Aura Is this divorce? The reflection fades, and with it, my life with you Goodbye and thanks for the memories I hear there is a good gig going on without us, and its playing our tunes
