The Departure

Laying down on the bed 

Enjoying the sound of nothingness 

While the daylight sneaks on us 

From the dusty windowpanes 

Love has left our hearts 

Like the soul leaves the body 

And like in every funeral 

We shed a tear 

Promissed each other we will never forget 

And our eyes said some words 

Words that our voices can not bear 

 

Eyes fixed on the cieling 

As the clock counts the seconds left 

Until it's time we decide 

To leave the deceased rest 

I gently smile 

Digging with my eyes the mask 

You covered your face with 

A moment of truth that for long I yearned to live 

I can see your features again 

Clearer than ever I can see you now 

 

You take me in your arms 

Embrace me for the last time 

I know you can feel my heart beating fast 

We both know there is something wrong 

Our love was supposed to last  

 

You slowly lean back 

Like you are avoiding 

My eyes 

You smile like you have to 

And say goodbye 

 

I never wanted to hear these words 

 

Maybe one day all our scars will heal 

Maybe a new love will soon appear 

But my soul will never truely feel 

Alive again 

 

I leave you now to drown me

In the back of your head 

An old song that time will make you forget 

I leave you now hoping you will never regret 

With a kiss cold as this winter day 

Cold as our hearts 

Cold as our bed 

I leave you with nothing but pain
