Recovery Will Only Take a Second For An Eternity

Hearts unfold time with no remorse

The ship of life sails with no chartered course

Love is lost with no glimmer of hope

Souls fade to shadow with no way to cope

Peace is made through pictured memories on a wall

Listening to a voice but death leaves no one to call

Home is a forever barren broken dream

Lost loves heard with the deepest blood scream

Searching in the mirror for you but only seeing me

Recovery will only take a second for an eternity
