Lyric

My fingertips are wandering, astray

Afraid of what they’ll find along the way

Words unsaid, and wounds that will not heal

A drifting heart that’s lost the power to feel

Down the slope of shadows, to the gate

Knowing you aren’t there, but still I wait

At the edge of the abyss, where spirits decay

Do the stones still whisper of a brighter day?

Are those beautiful memories all that remain?

Crumbling to dust in the silent rain

Under the pale and hazy moon

I walk a path that ends too soon

I reach for your hand in the cold night air

But only the darkness is waiting there

"Don't look back," your voice echoes low

A gentle ghost telling me to go

Pushing me forward, through the night I know

I opened the box at the bottom of my soul

Memories spill out, taking their toll

Faces laughing, side by side in the light

Futures we lost to the shadows of night

Climbing back up, leaving you behind

Knowing it’s the only path I can find

Between the worlds, where the spirits cry

I hear the truth in a long-lost sigh

Is this the law? Is this how we die?

To hold your ghost until the well runs dry

Under the pale and hazy moon

Against my chest, I hum our tune

The phantom warmth of your hollow face

Is something time can never replace

I’m not ready to say you’re gone

My shoulders tremble in the grey of dawn

"I want to see you, no matter the cost"

A selfish prayer for everything lost

But if you saw me, broken and small

You’d only shake your head at it all

Hazy moon, paint the memories gold

Too precious to leave, too heavy to hold

Please, let your hands make me forget

Under the streamers where the sun has set

One last time, let me feel your grace

Patting my head in that eternal place
