A shiver runs your back
As the cold cup makes contact with your lips.
Just close those grey eyes
and don't think about anything.
Don't think about your regrets.
Don't think about how everything went wrong.
Don't think about him.
No, you don't deserve this pain
(but it'll all disappear soon.)
Close your grey eyes shut
(remember how he had the same eyes?)
And think – just think for a moment.
Think about how you were wrong.
Think about what happened.
Think about your mistakes.
Yes, it should hurt this much
(you deserve this pain, you know?)
Take a sip.
(You see him laughing with them.)
Take a gulp.
(You see your mother screaming and raising a hand.)
There's still more.
(You see him l-e-a-v-i-n-g.)
Drink on, young blood.
(You see the flaw on your skin.)
Once more.
(You see a mirror.)
Grey on no longer grey
and you did it
you brought him to your mind.
Wonder now – think now before the pain becomes too much.
Could you have saved him?
(Of course, you could've.)
Did you cause it?
(That's a simple "yes.")
Did it hurt? Was he in pain?
(You hope not.)
Did he hate you?
(You're terrified of that answer.)
You're fLoAtInG on air
(in water.)
And nothing matters anymore
because you paid your dues
(and you hope he realizes it.)
You're fa(i)l(l)ing.
Fabric tickles your cheek
and you're gone.
Give yourself a second
and take notice of where you are.
Now's your time.
Ask those questions that have haunted you.
You'll get your answers
and then you can rest
at last.
The title belongs to the band Saosin and are from their song "Lost Symphonies."
This was something that just came to my mind today. Interpret it as you wish.
Fangz mew for betaing!
