A Thousand Days
Wasting time away, with cauterized visions again.
I'd breathe new life again if I...
If I could just breach the surface.
A thousand smiles can't deny the disconnect
From this potential.
Your words bring truth but I find that I'm just too far to hear them.
Sure, this haze could never disrupt the steel from which I'm forged.
Still, I need you more than ever and I can't find the words.
Your heart breaks with every beat,
Just know through all that still I'm holding on.
Am I free yet? Or am I holding back denial?
I'm still young but it's bleeding dry my life.
Your words bring truth but I find that I'm just too far to hear them.
Sure, this haze could never disrupt the steel from which I'm forged.
Still, I need you more than ever and I can't find the words.
Your heart breaks with every beat,
Just know through all that still I'm holding on.
Here life is not fading,
A man needs one chance to redeem.
I know I'll carry on with thoughts of home,
It all passes in the blink of an eye,
And I'll soon be home.
