I Am Not Here

I draw a parallel from days gone by
When glory laid in our arms
Simple pleasures, now, they’re not so simple
Once it was just enough to be near
CHORUS
From my eyes, look away, look away (I can’t see)
From my hands, turn away, turn away (they can’t feel)
From my heart, look away, look away (
Look away, I am not here
You stand torn, my greatest treasure
Looking for another chance to sleep
I promise I will be here when you wake up
Tell me, what can you promise me?
CHORUS
You say it’s me that you love completely
As you lie in your lover’s arms
I can see your bruises, oh, so clearly
Can you see what it’s done to me?
From my eyes, look away, look away (I can’t see)
From my hands, turn away, turn away (they can’t feel)
From my heart, look away, look away (I am not here)
From my eyes, look away, look away (I can’t see)
From my hands, turn away, turn away (they can’t feel)
From my heart, look away, look away
Look away, I am not here
I am not here
I am not here
