Illusory Light

I knew exactly

I knew exactly what this would feel like

I knew this day was coming

I knew it right from the start

I could see it in your eyes, but I just didn't care

I knew the days were numbered, but I fell anyway

I knew exactly

I knew exactly what you would be to me

A scar on the horizon, a perfect dim illusory light

And I held it in my hands to protect it from the wind

But the more I held on, I knew I'd lose it again

You blew in like a breeze and roller out like a storm

I know you didn't think it'd do any harm

I knew exactly

I knew exactly what this would feel like

To hear the same voice that said hello say goodbye
