She closes her eyes yet tries to look around 
there's nothing to hear 
there's nothing to see 
she's all alone and no matter what this cannot be changed 
this cannot be changed 

the shadows she chases may lead her in different directions 
the shadows she chases may lead her in different directions 
but she's unable to move 
the place she once tried to dream of is still there 
but she's unable to move 
the place she once tried to dream of is still there 
but she no longer tries 
but she no longer - 
but she no longer tries 

everything she once had is now only everything she once forgot 
everything she once had is now only everything she once forgot 
in her mind this reality fails to reveal itself 

day by day she repeats to herself 
just how much she has done 
and eventually 
her perception [bad word] a hope 
that [bad word] the empty canvas she is waiting in 
but this picture, but this picture is not sincere 
picture is not sincere 

everything she once had is now only everything she once forgot 
everything she once had is now only everything she once forgot 

in the shades of grey i feel the fragile hope 
that this scene was built of 

words can bring her back but it's hard when she's not listening 
silence can bring her back but only if she knows it's here 
time can bring her back 
time can bring her back 
but it goes so slowly without her
