Swallowed Tears

When the truth becomes a lie
When the pain is such, you ask but only why
When the swallowed tears have filled the cup inside this empty hole
When the leaves have gone away,
And the winter clouds approach and end the day
When the fading light becomes the only hope within your soul

Oh Serenity,
I've lived a lifetime just to find out that you're not to be
Oh Serenity,
you said "you'd be there" and I've waited, but it's still only me

And the page with every turn
As the fable goes, you have to live to learn
Then another story is written with the rise before the fall
In the once upon a time (we could wish upon a star)
We could make a ship and sail to
Neverland (as it's falling from the sky)
What I see today.
I can't recognize the mirror on the wall

Oh Serenity,
I've lived a lifetime just to find out that you're not to be
Oh Serenity,
you said "you'd be there" and I've waited, but it's still only me
