Fighting To Find Peace

I feel the fatigue in his bones 
As he tries to close our homes
To the oncoming wind
And he knows that he’s sinned
So he can’t hold my gaze
Should I tell him that there’s no one to save
When he tries to reach out to catch the lapel
Of the girl who fell
Into his arms for a while
And he could crack cameras with a smile
And I watched it break across you so easy
It was as though the Universe was just there to please me
As I shut half of my soul down
So I can go undetected in your town
But eventually, the bells, they rang
And somewhere our song sang
Out its own refrain
And it was as though a train
Ran right through the gates
Now the boy thinks the girl hates
Him for what he is
I just had to go so we could both live
Not merely survive
Sometimes I wonder if you’re still alive
Coz I dropped out of the scene
And I only meet you in my dream
And I woke up at five in the morning
And something had me mourning
As I screamed “he’s dead”
They conspire to kill me instead
And it was never what I wanted
I wonder if the love we share is haunted
By the ghost of lives past
Something last
But something just fall away
Like it was never made to stay
And he casts a glance my way
Would you dance if the record play
Our song again
Which one was it, the one about men
And how they fall short of the sky
When we are released do we die
Into an open expanse
And would our love get another chance
When the rote learned is done
After a hundred echoes around the sun
