Undone

Time has swept by    
Years a seeming torrent in my view      
And what remains of youth      
Though not old, hardened by the truth      
Marred and etched by lies without end      
And the faithful wounds of faithless friends      
      
Time has swept by      
Sorries echo amid the unsaid      
Long since drowned      
Echoing without sound      
Tip of the tongue, not quite remembered      
Though its chance has swept away      
And I wonder what I'd say      
     
Time has swept by      
All things have their end      
You, me, us...everything turns to dust      
In the passing days that once knew trust      
I love you, I hate you      
We're through but I can't forget you      
     
Time has swept by      
Yet I'm anchored to the past      
What is sunrise and sunset      
Until I learn to forget      
Faded memories that somehow still breathe      
Among fallen stars and wishes I believed    
   
And I still bleed
