What's this that I see?
Have you turned yourself from thee?
You wanna hide, won't you portray any longer?
Well, there it is!
No more comfort will comfort me
One night, won't me you appear, anymore?
Let it not subside
That beacon falls from your eyes
There's nothing left but change
Well, quietly my eyes portray sign to see
You are not what you seem any longer
Let it not subside
That beacon's falling from your eyes
There's nothing left but change
What was, what will be?
Have you turned yourself from me?
You wanna hide!
Won't you appear to be any longer?
Longer!
Look at you!
You wouldn't do this to me
Well, quietly, my eyes portray a sign to see
You are not what you portray to be any longer
Longer
If, by chance, you come for me
I will slip away
If, by chance, you come for me
I will slip away
From you
Me
You wouldn't do this to me
