Placeholder

Last time that I saw you Both hands in the dirt Asking for a photograph A picture you did not deserve Oh, but I was just a placeholder A lesson to be learned Oh, I was just a placeholder A place you will return Last time that I heard your voice Words I couldn't comprehend As a thousand years of feedback Screaming in my head Oh, but I was just a placeholder Exchange for what you had Oh, I was just a placeholder A tension you retract Curious, I came to you You wordlessly ignored As I stumbled psychically upon a truth I could not afford Oh, but I was just a placeholder A place and nothing more Oh, I was just a placeholder With nothing to stand for And this is where I doubted you An endless compromise To say that you told me to the truth is to tell each other lies Oh, but now you are a placeholder Blinded by desire Oh, now you're just a placeholder For someone wasting time
