Between Now & Then

Today marks the day that I am not afraid
To submit to a life of change
Flickering like a fire in the rain

All alone, with the words you said to me
Scripted into a masterpiece
And left to burn in a memory

I've been dreaming with a plastic smile
Floating up to the clouds for miles and miles
Then I fall so far
I relived every word you said
Fading out at the back of a truck stop again
Between now and then

I heard you say "you can't walk away
it's up to me to decide your fate"
You pulled me in, but the distance remained

Still on my own, and the ghosts still bury me
In an unwritten history
Frozen in a broken melody

I've been dreaming with a plastic smile
Floating up to the clouds for miles and miles
Then I fall so far
I relived every word you said
Fading out at the back of a truck stop again
Between now and then

We sat in the rain, the moon lit the night
Out on the water we danced in the light
All jealous and vain
And in spite of me
You went and you believed in a fallacy

I've been dreaming with a plastic smile
Floating up to the clouds for miles and miles
Then I fall so far
I relived every word you said
Fading out at the back of a truck stop again
Between now and then
