Yellow

I’m listening to Staind “Epiphany” There’s a bird outside who’s rapping to the song, really. It sounds like a DJ adding style to the song….ha.

YELLOW

I see you like an afterglow,

The final pulse of a dying star,

And time begins to move so slow,

That all the hurt seems so far

Away……

You’re just a memory now,

A silhouette dying in the light,

I try to swim against the flow,

But time’s river sweeps me with it’s might

Away…….

You’re the searchlight in the sea,

Fighting to bring me back to land,

But you and I weren’t meant to be,

I was meant to give your hand

Away……

You may feel cheated, you may feel hate,

And in truth, justly so,

But we can’t help but follow fate

And so it’s time that I must go

Away…….

There’s nothing I can say or do,

To justify this heart break,

I didn’t ask to fall for you,

I didn’t ask for fate to take

Me away……

One day perhaps you’ll decide

To forget loving me, though

Remember a piece of me also died,

I never wanted to have to go

Away……

I’m just a ghost to you and you to me,

We’re strangers in each other’s lands,

We must by happy just with our memories,

We were meant to give each other’s hands..

Away

We’re nothing but an afterglow……

The final pulse of a dying star…..
