I close my eyes and dream of you.
I dream that when my eyes open,
I will see you looking at me.
I want to see your face again.
I wish it never had to end.
You make it work with what you have.
You never let it bring you down.
You search for what was always yours.
You cannot find what is not lost.
You still do not see who is he.
And so as we walk these streets with the glow of the neon lights shining on our foreheads, and as the sounds of cars and roaring engines ring through our ears, and as the dirty air kills us with every breath we take, we still choose to pretend that nothing is wrong. You, me, everyone. We all know when something is wrong. From a love that just isn't true, to the ignorance of a fallen system. From the injuring of weak, to mass murder of the innocent. Few things are right and just. And few people will point them out.
I've come to realize
We're probably through
One of us may lose
So better me than you
If things ever do change
I hope that you come back
But think it fully through
Or it may just collapse
And to the man who broke her down,
And brought her to the ground.
And tried to pick a fight,
Through eternal night.
I give thee a warning,
of sorrow and of mourning.
If you try to hurt again,
I will see it to your end.
Give up the fight
Throw your arms to the sand
Lest your blood soon cover
The ground on which you stand
And to the girl who knows the pain
The bruises and the breaks
The sun is still above
To guide you to the love
So stand up and wipe your eyes,
Those diamonds in the sunset.
Think about your love,
And of him don't forget.
I hope it doesn't end here, but only time will tell. Keep running forward, until you hear his voice. Look over your shoulder now and then, but don't lose sight ahead. If I can choose my path, then all will end the same. Every road I take is a step closer to you. Remember my name, but dont forget your own, Laura.
