Open the door, let me hear your voice, feel your warmth

In the room of regret, even when I shout, it’s a false echo

I hold you close, but you pull away, still, I want you to crave me

Believing that the lies we stack will someday become the truth

Stacked up lies, hoping they turn true

Reached out for what’s false, but I only withdrew

Unseen sins pile up, hidden from sight

Broke away, started to run, no place in mind

The light I thought I’d lost kept me confined

Didn’t show the path, just a world of ease

Thought I chose my way, but I’m lost in the breeze

When your wish is granted, I know, this body will reach its end

Touch my cheek, give me words, draw me, convey the meaning

Seeking someone, or are they seeking me?

Shadows dance, leading down the stairs

A broken clock ticks, but time’s still theirs

Is it memory or just a ghostly sign?

Black mist lingers, senses in poise

Sick of the presence that clings to me

One day you’ll come, words lost in the noise

The embrace I refused will torment me

For the fading light, for this fractured ideal

When your wish is granted, I know, this body will reach its end

Touch my cheek, give me words, draw me, convey the meaning

Being here, I stand, cherishing this moment

As I decay, I fall, despair sinking deeper

Into sleep
