...For a Long Time - Single Edit
I've been gone for a long time
And I'm afraid that no one will be there when I get back
I've been away for a long time
And I'm afraid I won't fit the clothes I used to wear
I haven't lost
I abandoned everything
My wrongs were ethereal
But I was the one who chose to walk away
To turn my back on the attacks
That I never would have got an apology for anyway
And that's okay
There's an argument to be made
That I couldn't have gotten here if I had stayed
I stopped enjoying it on a dime
And I left nothing behind
I haven't enjoyed it for a long time
But I'm looking forward to the light
And I'm afraid that no one will be there when I get back
I've been away for a long time
And I'm afraid I won't fit the clothes I used to wear
I haven't lost
I abandoned everything
My wrongs were ethereal
But I was the one who chose to walk away
To turn my back on the attacks
That I never would have got an apology for anyway
And that's okay
There's an argument to be made
That I couldn't have gotten here if I had stayed
I stopped enjoying it on a dime
And I left nothing behind
I haven't enjoyed it for a long time
But I'm looking forward to the light
