Adrift

A breeze gets lost across the sea Moonlight's gliding on this glassy surface solitude My ears are dreaming pleasant words Gentle whispers from the drifting minds lovers left behind All the world is just the sea Lanterns rising from the ocean depths light their way past me These oars are dripping red on black Iron perfume ripples freely from the center of my chest I know I know there's no right way to feel But this way is most certainly wrong I don't even want this to heal I'm caught between this dreamworld and the cold, cold, cold, cold, cold This girl I know is crying alone Her name means the end of smiles I met her ten lifetimes ago And now I hear voices all day At night they go away The silence makes me scream Here I stand On the joyless shore of Acheron I will think of you And none will remember me
