Lyrics for raphaim
Can you hear me despite our distance? In lieu of our coexistence And in spite of my persistence I think I wish I could see you (you think they need to forgive you) Turn back time (well, what did they ever do?) I think i might shut my eyes (I know you'd rather start anew) In the meantime (no choice now, I think that you're through) The willows, and the shadows they cast The flagpoles, all hung at half mast The blanket sat under the tree The empty spot right next to me The suns going down, and I've lost all my patience Get up, and I run, and I fall to the pavement The day out that never followed through No choice now, there's nothing to do I think I wish I could see you Turn back time I think I might shut my eyes In the meantime Lately, our bed's been looking more like a rat's nest Filled with our hair and pet hair too We've just found it all too much trouble To pick ourselves up from the rubble The lack of memories that we've made Along the line that starts to fray I think we've started to realize There's nothing more that we despise Our aching body starts to decay Become one with nature, lie under the shade And rot away She doesn't think she's made it that far Their voice still rings in her mind She doesn't think she deserved you, gold star That that kinda thing is hard to find As she rode back home in her mom's car Holding all the tears she never cried All that she could think of was if the brightest star Would ever actually burn out
