Never Again, Again
Darkness swirls red, in the center a void
It stares into the world that never was
The heart beats with no body
The body moves with no heart and no cause
His world is gone, it was destroyed
And time flows on without pause
He observes the world around him and copies
The ocean stops to notice the flaws
No, Dont do it
No, Dont move
No, Dont do it
No, Dont move
A withered and wrecked corpse of a wretch
I stretch and still I ache
Wait, I wonder, will she remember
The time that we spent at the lake
We sat in the sun as the wind blew
The leaves danced in the chill of december
We looked to the sky, I looked in her eyes
As I whispered my first “I love you”
Please, don’t say it
Wait, I can change
Please, don’t say it
I swear I can change
He opens his rusted eyes
To feel the pain, to take in the hate
Look out to the space between lives
Past the world, past people, past lies
Don’t try to love him, it’s too late
He’s offensive, he’s defensive
Just look away while he dies
It’s okay, let go
I still love her
It’s okay, I’ll let go
She still loves me
It’s time, I shall go
I’ll reach out to the void and grab hold
Ignore the fire, ignore the cold
Watch the tale foretold unfold
This fools gold for this fool too old
To believe that love would hold
Against evils of the world untold
I touch my face and look away
The piece of me that would never sway
The piece of her that should have stayed
No one notices how still I lay
