Ring out all the silent alarms
I’m raising my arms
I cede, I give up
Wishing won’t push you any closer
to staying here
So much pain…as promised
It’s cold and strangely honest
Please- please don’t go I beg of you
Please- please don’t go I beg of you
I vaguely knew all along this time of ours
Would always feel a couple hours too few
Days pile up and blend into one
Then blink and they’re done
While you’re not looking
But oh, Good God I’m paying attention now
So things change…as promised
Alone as fate would want us
Maybe life explained
Would be just too much to handle
And the time we spend
Is not the real thing yet, but a sample
