she told me “follow me and I’ll love you”
she asked me to believe and love her too
she swore that things would never ever change
but life, life’s not that
I went with her to where she took me to
she taught me things I never thought I’d do
and the world seemed perfect for a moment
but life, life’s not that at all
then she went away quietly
and left me here
and I wished to come back
but I just didn’t know the way
I’ve been waiting here since that day
now everything is rotting and I am alone
the dark has overcome the sun that shone
I walk blindly there’s nothing else to do
maybe life is dead and gone
but I can hear the echo of your steps
I can’t see you but I feel no more the gap
it’s like if you were here and I was begging you
that life could change
“pull me out of the hell I am in
and let me up so I can breath at last
over lakes of mud and clouds of dust…
lying asleep on a bed of leaves
away from all my troubles and fears…”
