Receding
Verse 1
You can take it all away
My confusion
Please take it all away
Your lights flicker on and off
While I sit by your window
My mind attacked by mindless thoughts
Why can't it be simple?
You can take it all away
But still you have my heart
Verse 2
I'm just an illusion
a story in your history
a foregone conclusion
but be kind and remember me
Golden girl with the cotton hair
No one said it'd be easy
We wanted love but found despair
And now lights are receding
I can say it to you now
While I fade into the dark...
That this life is empty
And i'm receding
This life is empty
and I'm receding
These midnights lights envelop me
Bright city lights surrounding me
And I'm so lost I cannot see
The beauty that was you and me
Now the words have all been said
Was I easy to forget?
Yea...
