Hollow Spaces

One
Whisper away
No — look again
Dimensions changed
Yawning wide, our inter-space
Our falling sky
Our fading blaze
Tell me when did you draw away?
Leave hollow spaces in the words you say?
A dying fire, a broken gaze
Gone too far baby I’m afraid
There
Beyond my reach
Deeps much too deep
Highs far too steep
There you stand
Cool and aloof
Don’t bat an eye
Don’t make a move
Tell me when did you draw away?
Leave hollow spaces in the words you say?
A dying fire, a broken gaze
Gone too far baby I’m afraid
It’s our world I knew by heart
Not so fast
It falls apart
Nothing left in this place to save
Still I stay
Watch and wait
Tell me when did you draw away?
Leave hollow spaces in the words you say?
A dying fire, a broken gaze
Gone too far baby I’m afraid
Tell me when did you draw away?
Leave hollow spaces in the words you say?
A dying fire, a broken gaze
Leave us pining in this empty waste
Waiting for nothing
Waltzing on my own
Music stopped long ago
Standing in silence, reaching out
For someone who would rather not be touched
The futility, it stares me in the face
What now?
Won’t do to stay like this, stuck
Nothing to go back for
All that’s left is to
Let the dead sleep, let the ashes rest
And move forward
