~We're Getting Close~
We're getting close, we're destined to be there~
The beginning was long, the end is nowhere~
By the time we arrive, neither will care~
We'll trade all our dreams, to defy the nightmare~
We're getting close, we're closer than ever~
We took a wrong turn, we took it together~
There's no turning back, there's no forever~
We've betrayed love, built a twisted endeavor~
We're getting close, we're traveling beyond~
There's nothing left now, life has broken our bond~
All hope has shattered, there's no magic wand~
Our hearts are now tainted, they do not respond~
We're getting close, we're finally right there~
Resentment breads hate, and we no longer care~
Love gave us a chance, fate burned it somewhere~
The journey concludes, destination unfair~

Without you in my life
I feel so incomplete
Can you see the pain
When you look into my eyes
Am

Sometime in the middle
of the night
I awake to the sound
of your breath
that was not there
or anywhere near
without trace or clue
