Where you are

Standing all alone in the dark
Wondering where your last light went
Contempling your shadow in a spark
Hoping to see all your fears faint

I surrender to your cold words
And burn the skin of my fingers
As my hand touch the tear
Of all the promises you did not keep

Chorus:
If I look at the night sky
And see the past of the stars
Why can't I look in your eyes
And see right now where you are

If I look at the morning sun
And can't see it burn when the fire starts
Why can I look in your heart
And see it break before it tears itself appart

Memories full of confusion and despair
Thoughts fill with illusions and nightmares
You consumed your mistakes in a drowning
Slowy dying in all the tears that ain't coming

Chorus:
If I look at the night sky
And see the past of the stars
Why can't I look in your eyes
And see right now where you are

If I look at the morning sun
And can't see it burn when the fire starts
Why can I look in your heart
And see it break before it tears itself appart

Standing all alone in the dark
Wondering how to light back the sparkles
That once shone in your eyes
That once shone when you were alive

Chorus:
If I look at the night sky
And see the past of the stars
Why can't I look in your eyes
And see right now where you are

If I look at the morning sun
And can't see it burn when the fire starts
Why can I look in your heart
And see it break before it tears itself appart
