AN ENDURING REMORSE Day after day, I tell myself the pain will go away With every step I take, hauntingly, the moment turns to me From my own tears, the shadow feeds inside the soul Stretching and wearing me I cannot pull myself from the edge Can’t see Can’t feel Can’t hide From what’s real These are the dreams of the fallen Beneath a dying light The mist is clearing I can feel you around me Even without the sun I’m beginning to see what I’ve become What we once were and where we’ve been I am nothing, I am nothing This is the last time I will stand behind a broken face I gave up too long ago to see beyond the shore Day after day, I tell myself the pain will go away With every step I take, hauntingly, the moment turns to me From my own tears, the shadow feeds inside the soul Stretching and wearing me I cannot pull myself from the edge I am nothing I am nothing
