• Old Friend

Where have you been?
You are a different man.
You disappeared —
And just like that, you're here...

So did your time, away from here
Renew your soul to make you strong?
For your return I thought you knew:
It feels good, just holding you.

She's gone, I feel —
I think there's something wrong...
Have you seen her?
She's been away too long...

So look around
This dismal place:
Some things have changed,
What can't be new to them

I'm glad you're here,
I see you're well.
And welcome home...
...Embrace your hell.

In a town hungry for the lonely,
Lost, innocent child —
Forbidden life taken in a moment,
Life, too late for saving...

...or just in time.

In my mind, places keep returning,
I still see her smile,
And the dark fear that I am feeling
Dies once in a while.

And as the moon leads me through the madness,
There, standing alone,
I feel a breath, coming from the shadows:
Streets, almost alive!..

I heard a sound (I heard a sound!)
Familiar voice (Familiar voice!)
Why making a choice? (Why do you have no choice?)
I need to know (I need to know!)
Familiar words lead me back to my home...
Is she gone, are you real, I am here,
Can I trust who you say that you are?
And who I am now... (And who am I now?)
Too late for me...

...or just in time.
