Alibis and Chances

I caught you first from across the room
You were draped in a reddish gloom
Undestructed and bright

And you live your life in a different time
You're about to conceptualize
What you can control

What if I stepped into your freedom
Would you let me stay there for a while
Never come home and give no reason
Lost in an endless state of night

I stick around 'til you notice me
Visualize how it could have been
In a different life

But why would you even consider it
It's a meaningless fantasy
Then I catch your eyes

You don't look away, you're eyes are steady
They're fixed on a prey of your delight
Saying 'come on now I am ready
What are you waiting for tonight'

It's not right

But I don't want to live without answers
I've been trying it all my life
Frustrated that I'm missing the chances
Getting stuck in the alibi

No, I don't want to live without answers
I've been trying it all my life
Tonight I'm breaking the fences
And I don't have an alibi

I don't want to live without answers
