So this is permanent

Love's shackled cry

What once was innocent

Turned on its side



A cloud hangs over me

Marks every move

Deep in the memory

What once was love



Oh how I've realised

How I wanted time

Thought it too protective

Tried so hard to find



Just for one moment

Thought I'd found my way

Destiny unfolded

I watched it slip away



Excessive flashpoints

Beyond our reach

Solitary demands for

All I'd like to keep



Let's take a ride out

See what we can find

My newest collections of

Hopes and passing times



I never realised

The lengths I'd have to go,

All the darkest corners of

A sense I didn't know

Just for one moment

I heard somebody call

Looked beyond the day

And there's nothing there at all



Now that I've realised

How it's all gone wrong

Gotta find some therapy

This treatment takes too long



Deep in the heart of

Where sympathy felt swayed

I got to find my destiny

Before it gets too late
