I have been away I never learned how to stay But I’ve been lying wide awake Searching for the words that I can say You told me once what I thought was true Only to find an empty wound So please, don’t act like there’s nothing wrong You know there is, but you’re already gone Oh, I have watched These buildings things fall But you don’t seem To care at all But I guess that that’s what hurts the most The fact that you had seemed so close But also farther than I could reach Just like a shoreline on the open sea But I can only just regret That I had only tried my best But I guess that my best just wasn’t it I hope you find what it is you’ve missed But I know that you had never meant To cause this pain; to cause this mess But now I can rest my head Now I can sleep again I know that one day you will find your own Someone to love, someone to hold I only wish that we had had more time Before the spring had come to melt the ice But now the ground we knew has come and gone Now the season’s change is done But with the sun I will start again I hope you find what it is you’ve missed

Apology Song 05:14
I know I have started to change I know I was wrong I was gone You are not the one to blame For all my mistakes It was my own fault For leaving that day I stood beneath the wooden door frame And I walked away The last time I saw your face But by then was too late So I’ll write these words to you An apology song In hopes it will do But I understand if this Is too unexpected Out of the blue I just hope that you Are doing alright I wish that I knew Wrong from right I still wish I had you I know I have started to change Please don’t think that you are to blame I just guess that our two separate hearts Pushed us farther and farther apart

In the Light 08:57
In the light Of the moon In the darkest night Your eyes Your eyes Like stars Like prisms filled with truth But you’re no longer mine to lose You’re no longer mine to lose But in the sea In the sea The waves Will bring you back to me And everything Every little thing Will be The way that they were Before you walked out the door Before you walked right out the door But these nights Are growing so long Without you beside Me when I fall asleep And I know That you’re somewhere else, on your own And I wish That I was the one To keep you Safe from the cold of the world And you’d be my girl But I know that it’s gone That possibility That one chance where you stay right here with me Because those winds have passed And they left nothing behind But the scars on my chest Where your heart met mine Tied with sutures and thread Hoping to heal, but it can’t When I tear it again As I lie in my bed Holding that thread That thread back to you I can’t let go of it Or you might let go too Just know I’m here I won’t lose you There’s nothing more I can do In the light In the light Of the moon I will hold you tight I won’t let go of you

Old Friend 03:15
Old friend Where have you gone? I saw you run Away last night Silence Broken by footsteps The tear of the final thread That kept the sutures in tight But wherever you are I hope that you’re alright Old friend Can you hear me shout? Can you hear me now? As I cry out your name Echoes Bouncing off windows Like glass panes of microphones That mirror the same I know that it’s hard But it’s alright to be afraid If you just close your eyes I promise it will be okay
