Look Away
You have spoken
I heard the rain
Defied, denied and broken
And still no gain
You are sleeping
I saw your dreams
Inside you hide your reaping
Inside you scream
You feel nothing
I sense your past
A heart departs from loving
You fade too fast
You are crying
I look away
Pain in vain and dying
And we still can’t say
You aren’t here
I search my mind
Gone, so long to tears
Hearts and souls are blind
