I can’t even look myself in the mirror
I am taken back
Future is bright but the past is clearer
Peace of mind I lack
I remember a time not so long ago
Stars would forever glow
I can’t recall this empty feeling
Laying here staring at the ceiling
Walk away
Be that as it may
But I wanted to say
I’m a long way from yesterday
Trying to forget the pain
When I am with you
Confiding to remain sane
Before this is through
Now I’ve reached out to you
Hoping you’ll do the same
How much can this man do?
With so much to regain
Walk away
Be that as it may
But I wanted to say
I’m a long way from yesterday
I will go a long way from this place
Run from me
But what I had was right here for me all along
Running from the past that I can’t face
Without you
What must I do to clear this from my mind?
Pulling these pieces I can’t replace
I am sorry
I didn’t know what I had done but I knew it was wrong
I can’t continue with this empty space
See me through
How much more time before this peace that I might find?
(Repeat Last Verse)
