Memorare

Slipping between us

The ghost & the morning prayers spent on finding a reason to stay painful and aching, the balance is breaking

so many words, i don't know what to say

Our planets break orbit like paper and water delicate dancing on the edge of her lips

Something unsettled, and something remembered

Something forgiven, keeps silent within

She turns to me with tears in her eyes

as if she doesn't see the tempest inside

And our hearts are beating, but no one is breathing

A small thing I think, so close to the end

[Chorus]

The clock is ticking, time is escaping...I know

I must be standing on my own

and something sacred, it could be dying...I know

and I stare with headlights now approaching

Blankets of sadness, bound up and cover, happiness lost

I must have burried here

Inside I'm reaching, inside I'm pleading

I can't be losing everything that I remember...

Oh Memorare...oh Memorare.

Kisses left longing, somewhere behind us

asking for comfort, like cats in between

This new regretting, how foolish the choices

that once seemed so meaningful, so sturdy, and sane

Seconds in silence, last half of forever

searching for glimpses, lovers embraced

How close and how distant, we stand to each other

knowing that nothing here can ever be replaced

[Chorus]

Oh, Memorare...oh, Memorare...

[Chorus]

Are we together?
