Absent Without Leave

I can feel the eyes of your despair

Even when you're not here

I can feel your pain within myself

It's still keeping me down here

Life keeps on growing colder, year by year

With a winter heart and my frozen tears

I stand alone to face my darkest fears

I've been wasting away

I've been fading inside

I've been drifting

Away from the lights in my life

I've been living in vain

Living insane

I've been tripping

Down all the darkest of lanes

There's a shadow that dwells inside your head

Within mine as well

Turns our lives into living hell

Like a curse and a spell

I've been drifting away from days of light

I've been swept away, far into the night

I guess I'll never, ever make it back

I've been wasting away

I've been fading inside

I've been drifting

Away from the lights in my life

I've been living in vain

Living insane

I've been tripping

Down all the darkest of lanes

On a morning

A summer dawn

You speak

In riddles and rhymes

From a distance your life, it seems

Like a frozen heart

In neon dreams

I've been wasting away

I've been fading inside

I've been drifting

Away from the lights in my life

I've been living in vain

Living insane

I've been tripping

Down all the darkest of lanes
