Take My Hand

Spotlights in my mindEcho over timeEmpty frames insideHolding to the pastWhen you're reflecting on things, you can end up picking up on little fragments of memories, but then you realise those things are gone from the now; it's in the past.Mind in overdriveRunning like a fireSenses feel so wiredHow did we arrive here?When you start to realise things are ending, you get this hypersense state - every word, every move they make - it all hits back to the sense of decay

Take my handDarling won’t you take my handHold it like you used to; when this was newTake my handDarling won’t you take my handHold it like you used to; when this was new... even the way they hold your hand changes; you know it's different and you long for them to hold it like they used to.

Traffic lights insideTold me love was blindThe green lights of our minds can fool us into thinking everything's great. We can even believe love can overlook our mistakes and missteps.How could it unwindFairy tales have liedFairy tales tell us love is pure bliss without relent; that it's a never ending story. Well, not always.

In another lifeWould you still be mine?
