What can I say
And where can I go
The path laid before me
Is empty to the last
I don't see a way
A path or a trail
That would lead me
To some when
In which I do not fail
I know
I knew
But I no longer remember

It's funny
You know
How one unintended person
Can so influence your life
That one spark
That one you never meant
to meet
Can hold such sway
Over your day today
You can't shake it
That feeling of limit
That feeling that
You've lost control
One simple I love you
Triggers change
Swaps paths
And rules the way.

And you wouldn't have it
Any other way
Would you?

The deceit of the ordinary
Tall tales all around
Whispers of what we want
Hiding the cold realities
Of life
Everyday sirens
Draw us closer to death
One lost hope at a time
Vampiric banalities
Mesmerize
Taking our lives
One drop at a time

I'm tired of trying
To get over you
I'm tired of trying
To stop loving you
I'm tired of trying
To keep you away
I'm tired
Of being me without you

The visions keep coming
One after the other
Me in a coffin
You with another
Don't take this as literal
Don't take this as fact
I've chosen a new path
I'm on a new tack
