Loss
I look inside the truth
Standing outside the cold bites
A feeling of loss keeps me warm
The warmth is painful though
Leaving me scarred from the flames
I can't rid myself of this cloak
I try and fail, not my first failure
The burden weighs me down as I stumble
I shamble and ramble about past truths
No longer true but I can't let go
The past is holding me down
I dream of a better future
Dreams that are like smoke
I grasp for them to make them real
They vanish and all that's left is the cold
Once again the warmth of loss is there
My reality amidst the vanishing dreams
Standing outside the cold bites
A feeling of loss keeps me warm
The warmth is painful though
Leaving me scarred from the flames
I can't rid myself of this cloak
I try and fail, not my first failure
The burden weighs me down as I stumble
I shamble and ramble about past truths
No longer true but I can't let go
The past is holding me down
I dream of a better future
Dreams that are like smoke
I grasp for them to make them real
They vanish and all that's left is the cold
Once again the warmth of loss is there
My reality amidst the vanishing dreams
