The paradox of the flame

So there you are
I've been searching for so long
And here you are

Feels like a trick of my senses

How I wish for you to carry me
Far away from harm
And to ensure that all
All we've left will stay buried deep
So that our hearts will endure

So here we are
I understand our intentions are different
It's no one's fault
But there are light years in between us

How I wish that we still feel the same
That we did never change
And that we chant tomorrow
No time enough to amend our ways
With our hearts being torn

I'll beg until my knees will sore
I tried so much, more than you
You never heard, my words are nothing
I was never enough for you

And here we stand how broken now
We've lost our way, lost somehow
And there is no hate and much to love
The paradox of the flame
