Beats blast loud around me but my mind drifts away
I walk through empty crowds in the dead of the day
One twenty-eight rhythm beating under my rib cage
I handed all my love couldn’t make it stay
Spin across the floor to hide my tear-streaked face
Trying to erase the time we threw away
Piano keys cry out to mirror my dismay
I fought to hold us close lost within rainy haze
We built our precious dream till it crumbled to decay
Every ounce of trust slowly slipped away
Your voice still echoes clear inside my mind each day
Hunting inner peace I let slip far away
Shadows slide along the wall weight begins to sway
Lost inside confusion drowning in dismay
I know I need to leave yet I still cling and stay
Hoping for the sunrise but the light slipped away
Time to face the truth
Let it fade
