One upon a time I was of the mind
To lay your burden down
And leave you where you stood
And you believed I could
You'd seen it done before
I could read your thoughts
Tell you what you saw
And never say a word
Now all that is gone
Over with and done- never to return

I can tell you why
People die alone
I can tell you I'm
shadow on the sun

Staring at the loss
Looking for a cause
And never really sure
Nothing but a hole
To live with a soul
And nothing to be learned

I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
I can tell you why
The end will [bad word] I can tell you I'm
shadow on the sun

Shapes of ever size
Move behind my eyes
Doors behind my eyes
Bolted from within
Every drop of flame
Lights a candle in
Memory of one
Who lives inside my skin
