The Days We Live (Angel of Sadness)

As if there was a breeze behind closed doors 
The blinds and curtains sway 
Like it was time you were seeking 
As you ran after your blinded wife with nothing to say 
As you sit and you drive 
An acquaintance of life sits at the nearest stop sign 
Adoring the fact that you actually think you are alive 
And these are the days we live 
To whom do you fear 
Which crush are you near 
When your voice is the most unclear 
When your truest anger becomes sincere 
When dusk falls to silence 
Yet you wonder who else is here 
These are the reasons we strive 
Remember the days of our lives 
As lies became truthful cries 
To accompany you through hell 
This stranger abrutely tries 
You only acknowledge that I mutely lied 
It’s all past tense, fall and ask for hints 
As briefly as my last comment 
My only incomplete task to 
Visualize life and palm it 
Through a few calm fits 
And before I say goodbye 
I give you the days of my life
