You change in front of me Your eyes get darker every day It happens quietly Your focus slowly burns away And if you let me hear The things you seem to wanna say
I will wait to go Until I know you're somewhere safe
And even if you chose To lock yourself away If I listen close I can almost hear you say
Once I was real Once I was somebody's child Once I could feel Some feeling once in a while Once I was here Once I was somebody's friend Once I appear I will be real once again
You're falling into it An inescapable place Or something intimate Between the you that no one sees Is there a way inside You only hide from enemies Cause I'll wait I'm afraid you won't get rid of me so easily
And even if you chose To lock the world away If I listen close I can almost hear you say
Once I was real Once I had something to lose Once I could feel Once I was harder to bruise Once I was here Once I was willing to mend Once I appear I will be real once again
You're falling farther than I've ever seen you fall before For me to wonder when I'll recognize you anymore To see no light inside your eyes at all To bang my head against the wall And force myself to watch you fall away
And even if you chose To lock the world away If I listen close I can almost here you say
Once I was real Once I was somebody's child Once I could feel Some feeling once in a while Once I was here Once I was somebody's friend Once I appear I will be real once again
Once I was real Once I was somebody's child Once I could feel Some feeling once in a while Once I was here Once I was somebody's friend Once I appear I will be real once again
