Silver Circle

The silver circle lays beside the home we used to own
the warmth that it had gathered up
is scattered from the cold
I could hold your hand eternally and never see the blue return to red

The silver circle's emptiness is swallowing me whole
no part of me will ever see this ring gain its soul
what i would give to be the one to dry your tears
and bring the smile back to your face
it's not my place

and i know things are not as plan
but i am just a man
but in my veins a breath inside my lungs
and i know there is no excuse
but what am i to do
you're all i know and i can't let you go

the silver circle lays beside the home we used to own

the . fingers hide inside the fist thats getting old
my mind tells it to open up
but shame is like a prison to the mind

the silver circle and its girl has never left my sight
though they keep me on the fringe i won't go down without a fight
my heart is set my mind is made
redemption is a shadow i will chase i will chase

the silver circle seems to laugh and sing at lessons learned
but from dust the silver rose and back to dust it will return
time seems like the enemy but peace is always born to break your name
just you wait
