While We Slept In Burning Shades

Look in the mirror and what do you see
A stranger always looking back at me
It doesn't think to turn away
It doesn't seem to know me anyway

Stay in this place where we never part
See the happiness it brings, you took away
The only thing I had left me lying on my own

You couldn't wait and I understand, those times
Won't come back again, you took away the only thing

I stare until the view comes clear, I remember knowing you
Were everywhere, still clinging to that one last memory
Of a time when I was unaware, of how this would compare

I thought you'd stay to sleep in burning shades
I thought you'd stay, yesterday
