Oh-oh
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
Oh-oh
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
Decay too far gone absorbing no light or water
Sealing my wounded heart with a rootless, leafless vow
Two glasses placed side by side, their role
Never fulfilled, ah, just as thеy were
Since you last touchеd them
From all the memories stored in my heart
I gather up the ones of you, link them together
Gazing at them projected across the room
I feel you with every burst of pain
Sometimes I pretend you're there. Like if I just look in the window, walk through the door, you'll be there. I can almost see it. How we'd sit for hours, just enjoying each other's company. Laughing and talking and having fun. If I could just cross to the other side.
It isn't the same without you. The memories play out around me, like movies. I can see it. And yet, when I stand here, when I look around me, everything is frozen. Stuck how you left it. I can see the images, but they'll never be real. Never be you.
Everything is gone. I can't get you back. I'm stuck here drowning in heartache. Rotting in the dark where you left me.
"I left everything for you." I'm talking again, but you aren't listening. "Down to the last grain of sand. Everything is just how you kept it. I fixed it, made it perfect, for you." I stare at our cups, left on the counter, waiting to be filled. Empty since you left. The whole house exactly the same, a never-changing crypt, your touch lingering long after you disappeared.
My eyes trail the room again. The pictures, hanging proudly on the wall, now caked with dust. All of you, my fingerprints strewn across the glass. Just another barrier between us. And the pain is back. Or maybe it never left. Your smile used to light up my heart, now it's another stab into an open wound.
Time is pulling us apart. It's ticking, the sand falling, and you're still gone. The pain is too much. I'm rocking, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. Then there's a new pain. A sharp burst to the back of my head. And I'm falling into the endless black.
