Time Is Gone

Time has come
Time is gone
I’m here wondering: How did it last so long? 
God knows I loved you
I can’t take it anymore
Tired of confusion, I’m already out the door
You said you’d be the one who was always here for me
But as you can see, that’s not how things turned out to be

And somewhere in time is a faded memory, of what we were, all our dreams, and 
what was supposed to be
I know you loved me, but time, it always takes its toll
I gave you my heart
You completely drained my soul
You are so predictable
I see through your empty eyes
You’re just a hollow shell
It really comes as no surprise

You always got what you wanted
I was just too blind to see, all of the conditions branded on your love for me
But all of that is done now
And I’m not so surprised
Have to say: I saw it coming, when I looked right through your eyes
Looking back now, I don’t know why I did not see
I should have realized, you weren’t the one for me

Somewhere in time is a faded memory, of what we were & all our dreams, what was 
supposed to be
You know I loved you, but time, it always takes its toll
I gave you my heart
You completely drained my soul
You are so predictable
I see through your empty eyes
You’re just a hollow shell
It really comes as no surprise
