When all you have is misdirection
Reality is a mirror but only the reflection
As time ticks away and my sheets are still cold
I need you the most

I lay here in ashes battered and torn
With two broken sticks trying to keep me warm
You’re out there somewhere just as lonely as I
With a pack of wet matches and a tear in your eye

I want to dance with life as overtones surround
I want to feel that pulse with no one else around
I hope to see the eyes of the one who understands
In my arms I hope we meet again

That familiar day in memory
That haunts me when I sleep
A stalker in the window
Causing healing to deplete
I try to wipe the slate
But it’s never coming clean
A fiery flame is drowned
By the scatter of the sea

I want to dance with life as overtones surround
I want to feel that pulse with no one else around
I hope to see the eyes of the one who understands
In my arms I hope we meet again
