Darla
Wipe the shadows from my eyes
here i am, standing still
holding time in my hands
it's slipping through my fingers

silently slipping further and further away
just like you, i cant hold on anymore
I’ve got my hand on the pillow next to me
it's cold and your scent's gone too

I'll leave town tonight in the moonlight
I'll slip away like the memories of you
What’s started now no one can stop
I thought i could stop, but i cant

I'll keep running til i find the end
i wont look behind me or think of what was
who will trace my teardrops down the road
following the trail to finally find the goal

I’ll sit here and wait now til forever
drowning my hopes and wishes in this bottle
blood red and a soft shape like mine
I’ll lay six feet under til the end of time
