I'm at the start of this corridor,
It's pure, clear,
You're walking right beside me,
Your distance is near.
I've got until we reach the end, to send you how I feel.
But you're not even listening,
You're walking faster and faster,
My blood runs colder harder,
My fate awaits your ears.
But you don't even pretend to care,
As my image trembles and imagines you near,
As I tell you so soft,
I'm going to die, without you,
I'll be dead,
Without you.
The idea seems to excite you.
And now you're gone,
Down the stairs,
Can't follow you there,
To that crazy open space.
I turn, eyes wild down the corridor...
I see my 35 footsteps black,
Where my feet burned in futility,
Eternal monument,
To my stupid faithful heart.
There's only my marks there,
You, have left no trace,
Your shoes had soles of innocence,
Denying all liability,
But they lie, unlike yourself.
The corrdior now exists only in my mind,
The footsteps a myth,
Your absence so real,
Your drifting outline I hold to me,
Wishing I could feel it, so warm, but this air is so cold.
Shall I shout a last I love you?
Make you laugh louder, make you burn darker, make you rise lower.
How can I save you?
But I know where you went to get like this. I know what was done,
how he tore you apart, softly.
I hate myself for not being able to save you,
Look at you then.
Look at you now.
A difference of 2000 lost emotions, and one gained, so hard.
Your eyes shine inward to the night,
Ahhhh, I was there the night you fell in your own absence...
I couldn't stop him, the faultless urban prince.
It's all my fault... you're my blameless guilty one.
And I love you.
Burn in my mind,
35 times,
Never look down there again,
Never feel,
Those 35 footsteps black.
