Here
The flow of life surrounds me
Trying to drag me along
Here I stand, against the current
That would force me to move on.
I can't leave you
Even though we are separated
By more than a few miles
By more than a few continents
I can't look at life anymore
Not when it took you away
Not when it let you fade away
From the world we shared then
Not when I can't see you
Unless I follow you
I want to follow you
I want to leave this place
I can't live when you're not here
The river tries its hardest to pull me with it
Into a world where I can never belong
Here I fall, wondering if you can see me
Wondering if you can forgive me
For not being strong enough
Strong enough to stand on my own feet
Without help from someone else
Without help from you
The river washes over me
It can't touch me here
At the bottom where I'm going
I'll see you again
Even if I have to wait for a thousand years
I'll see you again
Here I lie, watching the waters of life turn red
From the blood that spills from my veins
The blood in payment for the lives I took
Before I could make up my mind
Before I could come here
Before I knew the world had no place for me
If only this wasn't the way it had to be
If only we could've watched the river together
The way we did before
The way that made you smile
When we watched the scientists play
With things we didn't understand
If only you didn't leave me to face the world alone
I can't face the world you left me
I've done what I could for it
Now, I want to see you again
Here I die, the river closing over me
Here I vanish, where no one will ever find me
Here, we meet again.
