A messenger approaches
In hopes of broaching one last time
Promises like embers in the fire
The smoke around your face
Shrouds the sadness in your eyes
An enigmatic face tells captivating lies
Fading
Into consciousness
I don’t want to be seen again
Cold realities experienced
Past feelings or common sense
As they vanish with the passing of your life
In my dreams you floated
Slowly fading out of sight
A lazy river took you into the horizon
The road from lust to love
Is littered with the ones exiled
Yet I stand here in denial
All your dreams are vanishing into another place
Your dreams are vanishing into another
Vanishing into another
Vanishing into another place
It’s where you’ll find me
I don’t want to be seen again
Cold realities experienced
Past feelings or common sense
As they vanish with the passing of your life
