Donut Hole

Memory’s a mess, I can’t really see

Since when I can’t remember properly

Only one thing is clear to me

It’s that I can’t recall for the life of me

Tried to think again, again

And only that face popped into my head

Still you were just a distant blur

And nothing else in my empty mind seemed to stir

Railways loop round and round the globe

Trying to chase down every bit of morning glow

But we don’t need tracks to lead the way

Pursuing nights instead of the day

Tried to think for the millionth time and

Yet only that face popped into my head

Gentle raindrops on my eyes

And a dark voice dead and cold inside

If I had kept it at bay, had the dark truth stayed away

Maybe I wouldn’t hurt you like I do now

Anyway, if I told you that I can’t sleep despite all I’ve tried

Maybe you’d laugh your head off, laugh until you finally cry

I counted these emotions Inside my mind

And then I realized that I forgot the warmth when your hand touched mine

Bye bye, I’m afraid we won’t meet anymore

Don’t even know I’d care so much

You’re just gonna make my heart sore

No I can’t function anymore

But I can’t shut the damn door

Like a hole, a donut hole

You can’t separate a hole from the whole

So I can’t distill you from my soul

I can’t tell if you’re real and it’s getting old

Tried to think again, again

And only that face popped into my head

Once again I slip myself

Between the sheets, waiting for help

Would we really be fine, if memories don’t really die?

Won’t we be haunted by them bothering us every night?

Will you please don’t remind me of those days gone

By I swear there must be a reason why I said goodbye

I counted these emotions

Lost inside my mind

And then I realized that I forgot how your voice sounded with mine

Bye bye, I’m afraid we won’t meet anymore

Don’t even know I’d care so much

You’re just gonna make my heart sore

Drip drip drop, my tears wet the floor

Still, I can’t shut the damn door

This empty hole that you bore

Inside my heart

It’s the only thing that tells me you were there till I fell apart

I fell apart and now I’m still broken and sad

How is it possible to hurt so bad

It’s really driving me mad

I counted these emotions Inside my mind

And then I realized that I forgot the warmth when your hand touched mine

Bye bye, I’m afraid we won’t meet anymore

But then a small word came to mind

As I floated in endless time

Afraid that it would slip away, I slowly opened my eyes

I opened my eyes

I opened my eyes

Your name was what I cried
