Our Last Night

I Have Fought A Measureless Battle

She closes her eyes yet tries to look around

There's nothing to hear

There's nothing to see

She's all alone and no matter what this cannot be changed

This cannot be changed

The shadows she chases may lead her in different directions

But she's unable to move

The place she once tried to dream of is still there

But she's unable to move

The place she once tried to dream of is still there

But she no longer tries

But she no longer -

But she no longer tries

Everything she once had is now only everything she once forgot

In her mind this reality fails to reveal itself

Day by day she repeats to herself

Just how much she has done

And eventually

Her perception becomes a hope

That brushes the empty canvas she is waiting in

But this picture, but this picture is not sincere

Picture is not sincere

Everything she once had is now only everything she once forgot

In the shades of grey I feel the fragile hope

That this scene was built of

Words can bring her back but it's hard when she's not listening

Silence can bring her back but only if she knows it's here

Time can bring her back

But it goes so slowly without her
