If Hope Dies - By The Time You Read This
Im leaving right now, not for another moment.
Can I stand to bear the weight of your eyes upon me.
Theres a weight that pressing on my shoulders.
Each step away takes so much effort.
But when you turn around next I still wont be there.
Ive managed to kid myself about who I am.
For such a long time.
And about how you may have felt.
Its still hard to put into words.
Just how much you mean to me.
Those wonderful nights just seem so far away now.
I can look into the sky.
And almost see them, out there between the stars.
Of course I know you dont even see that much at all.
So when you look back Ill be gone,
and you wont have missed a thing.
Maybe this is better.
Because Id rather you not see this.
How Id scream at these walls.
Until I can65533;t speak your name again.
Ive managed to kid myself about who I am.
For such a long time.
And about how you may have felt.
Its still hard to put into words.
Just how much you mean to me.
Ill be gone when you turn around.
Youll only see the same empty space.
The space that we both shared.
This those memories that youve forgotten.
And Ill be running; Ill keep on running.
Because Im leaving for good.
I wont be looking back, no I wont.
Running forward into the night.
Ill let it swallow me whole.
Maybe youll hear me in the wind.
But then it will be too late.
To say goodbye.
Goodbye.
