Looking into the murkey waters of my own illusion,
It's about time to shed some light on the shadows...

My home is the cabin that no longer stands,
on the edge of that watery stream...

He never saw his life as beautiful,
As beauty herself had always wept at his feet...

I dream something of you,
Loving you, Having you, keeping you...

Just because the paint has run out,
doesn't mean the picture is done...

Through drawing the clouds, or writing your smile
Dreaming the ocean, or feeling the wind...

I can fight for you and risk scaring you away...
Or I can sit here and watch you leave...

Don't mistake your life for mine,
This isn't the war you left behind...

This is my back up plan,
This is my One last chance...

You asked me, what I had to say.
I breathed in all my words...

I know my arms are far away,
But I'll try my best to hold you...

I wish I knew how to stop loving you
How to hold people at a distance the way you do...
