Gloom

Out of the gloom
The room seems to tell me things
Things I've forgotten
Things I haven't thought about
For far too long

Some things are just too heavy
To make the journey
Over the blue seas
I've got no choice
But to ditch the luggage
Or lose myself in the oblivion

There's this dream
I keep waking up from
I fly down the stairs
Thinking of you waiting
In front of the gate

I run down a million times
In a million years of memory
There are things I've left undone
Because tonight seems
To go on forever

I stand at this door
And look into the gloom
What do you see
In my unseeing eyes
Do you see me look past you
Because I'm looking at you
In my heart

I've seen the stars
Extinguished many a time
To be surprised this time
It's all I can do
To slip out through the door
Into the silence outside
