You're distant, but so am I 

Both of us are overloaded with secrets we cannot share

Maybe once I trusted you, once I could not lie

Things have changed; we are both no longer the same

The truth is forbidden, for neither one of us trusts the other with it

I remember the past and hopelessly hope that we could go back

But the past is dead and far gone; we are no longer there

The same we are not although I wish we were, who have we become 

I know now that we cannot go back, but the hope never leaves me

Peace will never reach me, for you will never leave my mind, ever

You were my peace, and now that you are gone, my heart will never heal

Yeah, you're not really gone, yeah you're right here, but I can't feel it anymore

No matter how much we try or pretend what we had is never coming back

The past is gone, and neither one of us seems willing to move onYou've hurt me a ton; I'm sure I've hurt you as well; the wounds aren't healing

So severely we both want things to go back, but in truth, they cannotWhat can we do other than put on a mask and pretend it's alright? 

We love each other after all, do we not?
