lyrics

October, apartment emptied
A single light shines through half-drawn blinds
Cascading across the barren walls, unfamiliar
To the heavy hands and tired eyes

So suddenly this place of loving reflection
Becomes a place of souls to mourn
Once living, now once had lived
Seek some peace in the vacantness
And pictures in pages long unturned

Why did it have to end like this?
How much had you suffered when I had been remiss?
Though I was never far, why do I feel the ache of distance
And the guilt of listless oversight?

Now yearning, always yearning
Just as the world keeps on turning
The agony of conscience
Ripping through my being
As your ashes join with his
I feel the biting wind
Of a New England November
A type of cold that does not forgive
Just like me, I deserve no alibi
For my absence, what can I justify?

Its August, what feels a lifetime ago
The dust from the diamond
Kicked up and falls like snow
Laying gently on the sun-soaked grass
To be roused again at footsteps crash

I can see your faces among the crowd
So full of joy, loving and proud
And I run towards the bleachers in shade
Running towards your earnest embrace
These moments, so plentiful in mind
Wherever I did roam, you were never far behind
A blissful youth, uncolored and unafraid
No fear of death, no fear of fate

Now, only yearning
Always yearning
Just as the Earth keeps turning
As our bones will become dust
As joy and pain collide
I will carry you forever
And even in death you will never die
This I swear.
