The Flame

Spiraled down into a hazy state of gray
I'm seeking out your voice in a divergent stream
Whether by you or a thousand miles away,
My empty soul is longing to mend our torn-up seams

Can't help looking back at old memories
Forever branded with the smile you once shared with me
A simple joy now tarnished. I try to drown the shame
But getting high never lasts quite long enough

You're the sparks that flicker endlessly in my dreams,
It's time to change the bulb but I can't reach the light
Wish you still would call me beautiful, oh please
But after all the changes, I don't blame you for your spite

Is time all that we need?
Is there more I could have done
To tend to the wounds made by our love coming undone?
It feels so alone with you but lonelier without you
And these nights out never last long enough

Although our flame is dying
There are still sparks a-flying
No matter how dim
I will always be thinking of you

Homeward I will be flying
Whenever you are calling
No matter distance
I will always be thinking of you

Although our flame is dying,
There are still sparks a-flying
No matter how dim
I will always be thinking of your

Homeward I will be flying
Whenever you are calling
No matter distance
I will always be thinking of you
