River A Close Study
A Close Study
The mourners bow their heads
But I am not above
Flow in the evening rain
Despite how hard I try
I'm left just to be
Lonely and afraid
My sober thoughts lie here
I have kept them away
A silence through the glass
It's colder when you're near
Your vanity makes me bleed
Illusions never passed
Your silence helps me pull away
I push farther from my thoughts
You made me pleased with how I feel
But a friend is all I sought
The days just blend into a whole
The pale skies just seem to grow
I have so much to give
More than you'll ever know
My useless pulse is through
My hope is given away
My trust has been misplaced
As I struggle through the haze
if you simply saw my face
I'd find a way to stay
We didn't speak at all
of how we felt
It doesn't matter now
And so you're gone
No one seems to watch
Need to be around
Losing myself
in nowhere
away from your eyes
But what do you care
if I'm not here
Just tell me why
