Sand and Snow |
| Every city is a ghost town where I see remnants of us |
| That will never fade because they’ll never see the light |
| The streets remember our footprints |
| Maps made in sand and snow |
| Where we walked side by side |
| The things we told each other |
| Piece by piece |
| As it comes back now |
| Revisiting |
| I stopped searching for our missing ending |
| There are no dry winds carrying torn pages down abandoned roads |
| Fluttering |
| Caught on telephone poles |
| Waiting to be found and read aloud |
| Even if I alone returned to those streets |
| Deceased |
| I’d be choked by the ashes of long combusted paper dreams |
| You are being immortalized as I speak |
| Not just in words |
| But a reality I live in my sleep |
| Last night I dreamt you followed me |
| I can feel you always close |
| Sometimes a day ahead |
| Or two behind |
| Hunting down a similar night |
| Different from the next |
| I can still hear your voice in air currents you’ve since left and I’ve just |
| found |
| I told you to never try and find me |
| But how can I ask memories to leave |
| They just come and go as they please |
| And even if I wrote a thousand songs |
| No one will ever know what you’ve done to me |
| They’ll hear it echoing |
| Or see the delicate skin shed from a body still evolving |
| Ghosts of emotions lost and unable to give up |
| A carcass of a parasite that left one final scar before being cast from it’s |
| host |
| We’re not bound by ties |
| But inescapably intertwined in eachother’s lives |
| Your love was glass cut like a diamond |
| But I have discovered a truer fortune |
| I take pity on your greed |
| You will never regain wealth lost in me |
| And even as I immortalize you with my words |
| I know you don’t deserve this |
