I reach
For the thousandth time tonight
A thousand times I’ve died
I scream, a million tears I’ve cried
And now I watch you sleep
Too scared to watch you breathe
Because it means you’re still alive
And I’m alone
Broke and left behind
And when I roll you over
With tears on your shoulder and you just want to be
The last surrender, the words remember
The bitter memory
When there’s no more fight left in us
When our dream has turned to dust
And blows away
Blows away into the emptiness
The lonely mornings tomorrow promises
To keep
Blows away
Into forever after, once upon a time
I reach
Through all our yesterdays
I scream, across the miles of pain
Now I watch you run
And turn your back on our love
Too scared to believe
Because it would mean your heart’s alive
And not alone
Beating next to mine
And when I chase you down
With empty arms you refuse to feel
What once was, now because
A broken wheel
When there’s no more fight left in us
When our dream has turned to dust
And blows away
Blows away into the emptiness
The lonely mornings tomorrow promises
To keep
Blows away
Into forever after, once upon a time
