Epiphany.
Looking through the hazy windows of my eyes
Pondering the world as it's beauty dies
Her laughter made this bleak decree
That love shall never set me free
Behind it's bars of ecstasy
Nocturnally imprison me
Within a place I cannot flee
Until I can forget of thee
I dare not speak, and when I do
My words fall flat and dumb on you
For so much better can you do
Than what we'd ever grow into
I am just a dreaming boy
Deluded now and then
Put aside like an ugly toy
Replaced by stronger men
Every day seems fateful now
Yet they all pass by in vain
It's hard to feel that grateful now
Amidst the creeping pain
Riding home tonight
I saw the writing on the wall
A final failing fight
A kiss to end it all
The twilight would engulf my mind
Seemingly at rest
The words that seemed to be so kind
Destroyed at your behest
I must have slipped somewhere, long ago
The siren voice compels me to go
To give chase to this childish dream
To the memory of blue eyes' gleam
I need to let somebody in
Someone to let me out
I need someone to share with me
What I can't live without
In the dark I saw a hand reached out
Relinquished every ounce of doubt
I clasped a softer hand in mine
My fingers tangled up with thine
I sensed the coming undertow
It was for me
Epiphany
I cannot give up now
