Disappeared

lyrics

There was a time
That you were so bright, and so strong
There was nothing that you feared
Nothing you could do wrong
Dreams glowed in the sun
Your world was alive
So full of life, hard and wild
You were the golden child

Head-long into the withering fire
Of a life in a dark space
Your conscience, became misplaced
Smoke that would not clear
No kind words offered to your ears
Shot down in a steep climb
You disappear in a haze of smoke and wine

Well I'm waiting and I wonder
Where've you gone why are you not here
We're waiting and we wonder
Where someone goes when they've been disappeared

Seperation of your thoughts
Words that no longer rhyme
Days spent in your room
Spinning webs with the threads left of your mind
Dreams you no longer face
Hidden away in some far place
A shame of a kind that does not erase
Hold onto your pillow and drop out of the race

Head-long into the withering fire
Blindfolded, stumbling across a tightwire
Shot down in a steep climb
You disappeared in a haze of smoke and wine

Well I'm waiting and I wonder
Where've you gone, and why are you not here
We're waiting and we wonder
Where a soul goes when it's been disappeared

I see you and I speak tyo you
There ain't nothing in your eyes but the glow of fear
I beg you to tell me
Why have you been disappeared

The struggle of these last years
Brought me to this place
Where I hold my beautiful wife
My beautiful child
I reach and touch her face

All the hurt of my lost years
The uncertainty, all the fears
The losses, regrets and the tears
Have in time been disappeared
Have with time been disappeared
They will with time
