The pain is long gone
But this feeling lingers on
Why do you haunt me?

I've seen the people
They have tombstones in their eyes
Dying to get high

And though she was blind
Her eyes shined with inner light
And love beyond words

Deep down inside me
There's a yearning undefined
A role not yet served

Memories of you
Cannot fill these empty arms
Pride can't keep me warm

I'm the cold hard ground
But she is the gentle rain
That makes flowers grow

Silence says much more
Than useless words we have said
Many times before

With each passing glance
We're all looking for someone
Behind strangers eyes

The sun don't seem bright today
And there's clouds in the sky

You're just not yourself today
But there's no reason why

You're talking
Crazy
Words in disguise

They see you
Struggling
Hiding your eyes

You say it's in self defense
You tell yourself lies

When you hurt the ones around you
You're not the one who cries

You turn to
Anyone
You can cling to for a day

Gripping
But slipping
On the ground in your way

So be here now
Someway, somehow
We won't be here again

I promise you
When this is through
I'll still be here my friend

Until the end

Dancing to the sea
The river will cease to be
But the sea grows strong
