Take Me Away

Can't escape the ghost of you, still I feel alone Alone in my head, lost without your light to guide me home Take me away to a time when we were near Even drawn to silence, it's just your sweet voice I hear Memories recede in time, 'till I can't recall The minor moments that entwine to the rest of them all Replay time on repeat when we were good Skip past the parts, when we both misunderstood Still, my heart still burns, for you Time is a luxury that I can't sustain Even for a fleeting moment I wish I could ease your pain Firmly grounded by fear, caught without a plan But I promised, I'll be there when I can But still, my heart still burns, for you Still, my heart burns for you now Falling out of phase, out of time, nothing written in stone Fading fast from you, taking it in, but I just can't remember it all I'm feeling weightless and scared, and tired of life Void by the moment I cede all control Is it all in my head, the life that I've known, it's all in my head, and I can't let it go It plays over, and over, and over again, the choices I made, well what if I had said? Could I have changed, anything at all, or is all life fixed to an immutable fall Everything I see reminds me of you, these mementos I keep, the mori of you A body weakened in time, with beautiful young eyes How I wish you could stay, and take me away
