When

Just thinking... very... very late at night

I'm sitting here, wondering, when did you stop being my inspiration?
Where once you helped me write, now you freeze me solid...
When did you stop being the center of my universe?
Oh... that never really stopped.
I wonder when you came off the pedestal I had for you,
And boy did I mount you high!
When did you collapse and when did you break my heart?
When did my innocent become this deviant?!

When did you sneak up behind me and bit my throat right out?
When did you leave me bleeding and then shut me out?
When did you stop calling when did you disappear?
When did you abandon me dear?

I'm sittin' here wonderin' where you disappeared...
Where the butterfly I chased dissolved into thin air...
And now, the storms are higher, can you feel it, dear?
The electric buzzing that charges through my hair...

When did you fall off the pedestal I nailed you on?
And how, from what you were, become so fallible?
My sculpture, vampire, am I still your guardian,
Or have you moved from me, from what I might become?

When did we drift and put worlds between us two,
Were you that afraid of what I'd do to you?

When did we run away and reached infinity,
In both directions baby, you won't be finding me.

When did we break apart and live so well alone?
When did we decide we're done?

When did we both give up and drifted apart?
I'm just your memory, but you have my heart.

Damn this was so gut wrenching... all those questions really full of intense emotions... unfortunately we can hold someone up so high when we have deep feelings forgetting that they too are human. It is how we deal with the mortality that shows our true feelings.
