Darling, drift away from me

I'm not the man I'm meant to be

Shield your eyes or turn away

There are things that you should never see

Beautiful, I lost my way

I've said things one should never say

I don't hate you for leaving me

I know you really tried to stay

When time is running out too fast

And your mind still lingers in the past

You might just blink and miss it all

Some things just aren't built to last

You're out there shining in the sun

You make your downfall look like fun

While I'm still freezing in the dark

With awful things that I have done

So tell yourself another lie

Or sell yourself to reach the sky

I wonder, will you realize

Today could be the day you die

Rusted from the rain again

Drenched in apathy and sin

Nostalgia warped into a blur

The memories are soaked in gin

Lover, I'm alone tonight

So tired from the endless fight

How will I see the end is near?

I fear that I have lost my sight

I'm calling up from down below

I'm never been so fucking low

I'm reaching out but all you feel

Is sickness from the horror show

You're out there shining in the sun

You make your downfall look like fun

While I'm still freezing in the dark

With awful things that I have done

So tell yourself another lie

Or sell yourself to reach the sky

I wonder, will you realize

Today could be the day you die

I only wish the best for you

I pray you know this to be true

I must admit to this, I miss

When my love for you was still brand new
