I dreamed you were here
You in my arms
Scars gone
Love perfect
No one to infect
No more anxiety

I live in the now
And I leave all behind
So scared to look back
At the times I despise

My present is life
The past is a dream
Never happened
Her arms and mine

I live in the now
And I leave all behind
So scared to look back
At the times I despise

Too bad you don't exist
Too bad we never met
Who are you?
If I run
The present is mine
And no one left
To dwell on the past

I live in the now
And I leave all behind
So scared to look back
At the times I despise
Sorrow
The only medicine is out of site
Deeper and Farther
But to gaze in your eyes
To sense the evil pushed aside
What more to crave?
But Pain

Stay Far
Let me forget
Soothing pain
Help me breathe
The sorrow that is my past

I hope to meet you again
In some other way
Another person
Another Past
Let me remember your lips
But not the leopard patch

Stay Far
Let me forget
Soothing pain
Help me breathe
The sorrow that is my past

I'm sorry for me
Too bad I love
What hurts the most
Praise by folly
