Guiding Light

I just can't relate, to the smile on your face as you whisper "it's too late"
The words just seem to dance around your tongue

You've lost faith in what once couldn't be replaced
Left in disarray
Somewhere along the way we lost the spark that would illuminate
I saw it fading faintly

My love let go; for what its worth, its never-ending
I'm left behind; you'll be just fine

You'll be just fine in time
And I will be lost forever

It feels so cold up here
I can almost touch your skin
I'm drifting dreamlessly
Forever caught in the in-between

Though we shared this passage through the darkness
Only you made it out this time
I'm captive to disgrace
Just a fragment, never to be whole again

You said "forever", but you never saw hope
Prevarication hid the truth when you spoke
I watched my light dissipate like a cloud of smoke

My love let go; for what its worth, its never-ending
I'm left behind; you'll be just fine, but
How do I ever get through life like this; alone?
Nothing can save me; you left me empty

My love, let go; for what its worth, its never-ending
I'm left behind; you'll be just fine, but
How do I ever get through life like this; alone?
Nothing can save me; you left me empty

If closure is so safe
Why can I just barely breathe?

I toss and turn at night
You swore we'd be alright
(All that's left are your pictures and memories)
This pain just won't subside
You were my guiding light
(You're just a phantom that keeps haunting me by the bedside)

You were my guiding light
You were my guiding light
