Since the day I let you believe
that a grand life I would provide
I am haunted by the failure you see
Before you, consuming the echo
To travel the road of our dreams
With my back against the wall
All I can do is look the other way
And pretend that your face held a smile.
Not to see your sullen eyes, staring past my soul
Into the darkness of night.
I feel I've failed you when we both knew
I never had the chance to say hello.
Far away from your warmth I fade
Silently, I bid you farewell, and wallow in the moment.
So very small, this distance between us
To travel so long and gain no ground.
The very face I see, in the mirror, knows
The truth behind the lies.
For my trust, I hear, the dead leaf echo
And the answer awaits us on the other side.
Far away from your warmth I fade
Silently, I bid you farewell, and wallow in the moment
Looking back to the days when we were poor,
And all we had was each other
You looked so sad, and almost ashamed to have me at your side
In circles spins my mind, and the vertigo makes me sick
All I can do is look the other way
And pretend that your face held a smile.
Not to see your sullen eyes, staring past my soul
Into the darkness of night.
I feel I've failed you when we both knew
I never had the chance to say hello.
