It's so lonely, coming home to the empty bed -
The one that you slept in with me.
I can't take it. You'll never make it back again.
I know I've lost the friend you'd be.
And we used to be so close.
How did we fall, and lose it all?
We used to have the world.
Where did it go? I'll never know.
I don't resent it. You know I meant it when I said I loved you.
It's always been true.
I can remember that tiny ember in the dark –
That spark that burned us blue.
Commit this body to the flames
To be consumed, like flowers bloom,
But don't let it slip away.
The darkness stands beyond your hands.
The last ashes. My heart crashes in the waves.
A salty haze sets in.
On the wind it billows in with an ocean breeze
From distant seas.
