Your name came up today in conversation Have I seen you lately and how have you been I choked on the words in desperation I said you were fine -it was all I could say and I whispered it again I whispered it again

8:17 Saturday morning My stomach felt so empty, like I didn't eat for days I drew my knees to my chest and without warning I dropped like a stone through a current so strong that I drifted away So far away

Haunted silence is broken by a voice inside I can't quite recognize as my own
chorus
When souls collide and choose the same direction In tandem they fly in love or intrigue -I could Never sacrifice enough to change the imperfections Now the very things you loved drive you away from me and decorate this sanctuary

Some stray morning light crept from my window found its way through my fingers and reflected off my tears I'd squeeze my eyes tighter in those useless shadows But permanence in such asylum is not welcome there
pre2
Silence haunted By the moments I relive Only weaves a thousand tales of fiction
chorus
When souls collide and choose the same direction In tandem they fly in love or intrigue -I could Never sacrifice enough to change the imperfections Now the very things you loved drive you away from me and decorate this sanctuary
break
Everyone looks so familiar -all of a sudden Everything seems to hold some memory -that used to be nothing Fading photos now hallow your name while serving their sentence in second hand picture frames And quietly echo the songs of our lifetime
buildup
Now the air is too thick too breathe Saturated by contempt that I hold for myself Lost in another delusive search for false redemption -for being human
pre3
Chained by silence trying so hard to believe I'm at least a pleasant memory that still haunts you...
chorus
When souls collide and choose the same direction In tandem they fly in love or intrigue -I could Never sacrifice enough to change the imperfections Now the very things you loved drive you away from me and decorate this sanctuary
