13.Fugue Fugue
With an empty heart and all my hope wrapped tight around me
Fled into lonely night, I'm still here you never found me
Running past fantasies (in anonymity) of your Utopian daylight
Pretend I'm someone else (one of many) memories don't seem to
fit right
Those bells I thought would never toll for me
When they did, hollow the sound, hollow the meaning
But recall all the time (now far behind me) spent in a warm
embrace
And why I exited (please don't remind me) knowing it couldn't be
replaced
Love, once I thought you were (it's so easy to fall) the cure
for everything that ailed me
After I tried so hard (or did I try at all) was it that you
simply failed me?
Those bells I thought would never toll for me
When they did, hollow the sound, hollow the meaning
Love, when I care to look I see you as smoke and mirrors
Naked, I face myself when your illusion disappears
