When She's Gone - Spock's Beard

I stand by the bed watching her sleep

Trouble in mind

Still waters run cloudy and deep

Down to the core of our small world

Sure as the sun burns under dawn

There comes a time

A time when the last straw breaks

A bad choice turns easy to make

When nothing seems quite right or wrong

When she’s gone

Who won’t believe

That she put me out of her dark misery

Bullets made of ice leave cold evidence

I can bury the rope but not the loose ends

When she’s gone

We danced to the edge flirting with hell

When we turned back

She lost her way stumbled and fell far down

And she never looked up

Closing my eyes isn’t enough

To ease her pain

Maybe I should turn and run

From what I have become

Maybe one day I’ll be that strong

Is there another way out

Look back to the beginning again

Forget about where you’ve been

My sanity I will defend

The past has found the future

Latched on like a cancer

The past has found the future

Latched on like a cancer

There is no answer, there is no strategy
