Metamorphobia ii

Now see what has become of us
And what has remained
You gave nothing to me
Except a moment of dead faint

I can't recall the feelings
That I cannot show
No one yet believed me
With each goodbye I grow

The song in my head longed for a voice
Singing from the depths of my heart
A fragile line on the piano I wrote
Just to make the end complete

Seems like I have to take leave of you
To find you again
You played with masquerades I always knew
Every now and then… now and then

Now see what has become of you
A jail without escape
This means nothing to me
An appearance of a fooling shape

It's the fate of mankind
That no one holds the truth
Yet the whit of what we share
Leads matters to its course
I'm the despaired twilight
Seeing off the fading day
A world so cold, a world so dead
Is the place I have to stay

Time has stopped at the end of the world
Still a good place to end in smoke
For the ones trying to stem the tide
Though just a change can heal their souls

Seems like I have to take leave of you
To find you again
You played with masquerades I always knew
Every now and then… now and then

Kiss my eyes
And wipe away the dust of sleep
As in the first flutter of my sight
I see your familiar face
