The sky parts just before her lips
Her words hang in the air
A chill as my thoughts are eclipsed
By a warmth from her stare

Time
Just
Stands
Still

I'm fighting to be there
Could it be better if some things had just never been

Cast in shadows
Cast in shadows
Memory makes the cut in me
While I am
Cast in shadows

Sometimes oceans lay between us
As I run my hands through your hair
Just memories like phantoms with a vengeance
Smother me unless they see how you care

Time
Just
Stands
Still

Tell me "Be strong and bear"
Easy for you to say, I don't know where to begin

Cast in shadows
Cast in shadows
Memory makes the cut in me
While I am
Cast in shadows

But I keep on fighting
Like my minds hit by lightning
Here I am
Cast in shadows
Cast in shadows
Memory makes the cut in me
While I am
Cast in shadows
