How did we end up here in this place
By design or mistake
I check the replay but I hesitate
On whose at fault and whose to blame
I see your picture but it's not the same
The smile's the same but it's out of place
I hear your laughter and it cuts me to the bone
Are we bound in pain or am I all alone
Time is precious
Time is cruel
Time's a trickster
Time makes fools
And time's enough to fill your dreams
With gifts of hope and promise
Time is fleeting
Time is short
Time's a punchline
And we're the joke
The master of all we survey
While time is killing us each day
I remember laughter in the days
I remember walks out in the sun
I remember sleepless nights
I remember the lies behind your eyes
Our two paths collide
In a glory blaze
Two minds united
The fire suffocates
Just another stranger in the crowd
A bag of regrets and a mouth of apologies
I tried to be your friend but I guess it wasn't good enough for you
You shut me out as if my feelings didn't matter to you
I will never go back there
I will never hurt again
I will never be this open
