Dust

Once upon a time
I walked alone with tears in my eyes
I didn't know why
Until I fell into the light

I've been taken somewhere new
Somewhere I thought that I could be free
I don't know what I should do
With all of my hearts' debris

I see you look at me from afar
And notice myself wonder who you are
One thing I can see, are your bright eyes
And I wonder if it's all a lie

I've been taken somewhere new
Somewhere I thought that I could be free
I don't know what I should do
With all of my hearts' debris

Even as I see your face
I feel tears stream down my own
I wanted to care about all of your grace
But what filled was the disgrace of my own

I've been taken somewhere new
Somewhere I thought that I could be free
I don't know what I should do
With all of my hearts' debris

I see you coming near
And feel my eyesight go unclear
I hear my heartbeat in my ears
And hope I don't feel any tears

I've been taken somewhere new
Somewhere I thought that I could be free
I don't know what I should do
With all of my hearts' debris

You're closer now
Close enough to touch
But when I do all I feel is dust
And then I wake up
