EN
The silence in this room is loud, a hollow, constant drone I stare out at the pouring rain, completely on my own It's incredible how fast time flies, like a trigger, setting off this pain A moment lost, a chance undone, caught in the pouring rain There's no going back except in my memory, and you live there eternally I replay every perfect scene, a ghost that follows me Why should I live without you? That's like dying, a slow, cold fade away But the world keeps spinning, day by day I search the faces passing by, hoping for a spark I know I won't find A foolish game my heart still plays, leaving the present far behind You never told me to forget you, but I'll be okay, eventually, I guess I whisper promises I can't keep in this lonely emptiness Only you hold the key to my heart, and you took it when you left I'm locked inside this aching space, utterly bereft All I want is to be with you always, a simple, desperate plea But always turned to never: It seems, just for me There's no going back except in my memory, and you live there eternally I replay every perfect scene, a ghost that follows me Why should I live without you? That's like dying, a slow, cold fade away But the world keeps spinning, day by day I just want you to know that even if thousands of people exist There's no one else who compares to you No one compares to you Just the memory, shining through
