Love Notes & Carnations - The Tear Garden

I sit and watch your silhouette

I wonder what you’re doing

Who you’re with

If you’re thinking of me now

Was I just a passing phase?

Did we ever really share?

Did we just soliloquise —

Was I ever really there?

If I leave this sheltered space

Will anything be there?

Disinfected, disconnected

Waiting in my cage for you to call

Am I living in a cage

With all the comforts I created

When I want you here

All you do is close the blinds

And leave me crying to a shadow

Locked behind a glass

That shuts me out

That cuts me down

Memories are fading

Surely something slowly burns

Don’t you yearn for just a replay for a day?
