Ali Murray - Sober Moon
I'm sorry I was never there I was not old enough to care I have nothing left to lose so I'll dream of you beneath the sober moon... --- In the stillness of a photograph In a hazy memory I remember you way back then silently watching over me Long ago in a peaceful place Burning out the hours down to the core I think of you and smile and you remain unknowing, forever more Now time casts a shadow over my body and the machines of age have taken my mind I've worn this mask for so long It's become to hard to remove, I find The years have been harsh and unforgiving I've been blanketed in its cold embrace I'll blow a kiss to the stars above and leave without a trace I watch all the events of my life occur but I comprehend nothing I feel the world shed its skin and brim with tears but I learn nothing at all The moon shines down on the dark and lonely streets Tonight our fears have subsided and our lies remain discreet It's so quiet now I can almost hear your thoughts lost in corridors and ocean depths and there are many cracks in the wall where I solemnly slept These days are comatose and so much has come and gone My throat constricts and my heart swells as time carries on...
