lyrics

When I go away
you're always on my mind.
(And I won't return. I won't return.)
For you are of myself,
and I must hold you up.
(I won't return. I won't return.)

But if you hold my like you did,
then I could love you like before.
But in the quiet of my mind
there's a voice I can't ignore, saying,
"Look beyond the powdered room.
Look beyond what you can see."
There's a fire burning now,
inside of you, inside of me.

What I ask you for is what we all deserve
(And I won't return. I won't return.)
I have had enough.
I've said all that I can.
You don't even listen.

But if you hold me like you did,
then I would love you like before.
But in the quiet of my mind
there's a voice I can't ignore, saying,
"Look at what's in front of you.
Try to see what lies beneath."
There's a fire burning now,
inside of you, inside of me.
