Selfie
Are you walking in the rain?
Are you feeling any pain?
Did you realise that dream you had of living on an island overseas
Is there anyone at home?
Or are you sleeping all alone?
I guess I mean I think of you and all the little things we used to do
Do you harbour any doubt?
That we could've worked it out
Or do you think that love is just confusing like a mystery?
You
Tried everything to understand
But there was nothing more that you could do
Can you see it my face?
In the lines I can't erase
Those little tell-tale signs of loss
All the things you thought you could replace
Is my lifeline back on track?
Do you think of coming back?
My universe is empty and I float around in pieces without you
Me
I'm living in the space between the shadows and the echoes on the wall
You
Are everywhere it seems to me
A flying bird that soars and never falls
Try walking in my shoes
I’ve nothing left to lose
I'm living like a castaway marooned inside this ocean without you
Do you harbour any doubt?
That we could've worked it out
The game was over long ago
We never even came within a shout
So I'm sending all my best
For the future and the rest
And I'm sending you this selfie ‘cos I know there's nothing more that I can do
And I owe it all to you
