Night Rifles
Bubbling out of my head
A distant shadow from my bed
A silhouette
A gleam from the moon
A hairpin lights up the room
The silhouette grows with the passing time
Cogs in my head won't stop spinning around
Voices on voices echo through my mind
One stands out and my temples pound
See a smile
But tears, oh
Those faded eyes
You didn't say
Why'd you go?
You're not here when I need you most
Depressed pillows in the corner
Crackles from the freezer
Echoing
Settling
Forever in just an hour
Lips move in patterns I've seen before
Shrouded in endless beauty
Blue leaks in and bleeds on the floor
As you float down to me
See a smile
But tears, oh
Those faded eyes
You didn't stay
Why'd you go?
You're not here when I need you most
At least for awhile
You were mine
Now you're a memory I can't find
From the ground to the ceiling
The mold grows and I lose feeling
Sleep won't come
I am sweating
Wide awake, but still I'm dreaming
Weeping noises from the other room
Follow the sound and open the door
Faces of unknown people gloom
Drop my heart on the floor
See a smile
But tears, oh
Those faded eyes
You didn't stay
Why'd you go?
You're not here when I need you most
Staring back
With the moon, you glow
But from years ago
A distant shadow from my bed
A silhouette
A gleam from the moon
A hairpin lights up the room
The silhouette grows with the passing time
Cogs in my head won't stop spinning around
Voices on voices echo through my mind
One stands out and my temples pound
See a smile
But tears, oh
Those faded eyes
You didn't say
Why'd you go?
You're not here when I need you most
Depressed pillows in the corner
Crackles from the freezer
Echoing
Settling
Forever in just an hour
Lips move in patterns I've seen before
Shrouded in endless beauty
Blue leaks in and bleeds on the floor
As you float down to me
See a smile
But tears, oh
Those faded eyes
You didn't stay
Why'd you go?
You're not here when I need you most
At least for awhile
You were mine
Now you're a memory I can't find
From the ground to the ceiling
The mold grows and I lose feeling
Sleep won't come
I am sweating
Wide awake, but still I'm dreaming
Weeping noises from the other room
Follow the sound and open the door
Faces of unknown people gloom
Drop my heart on the floor
See a smile
But tears, oh
Those faded eyes
You didn't stay
Why'd you go?
You're not here when I need you most
Staring back
With the moon, you glow
But from years ago
