All Of This Past

Here I go again

Slipping further away

Letting go again

Of what keeps me in place

I like it here

But it scares me to death

There is nothing here

The light is beautiful

But I?m darker than light

And you are wonderful

But this moment is mine

All of this dust, all of this past

All of this over and gone

And never coming back

All of this forgotten, not by me

I find comfort here

'Cos I know what is lost

Hope is always fear

For the pain it may cost

And I have searched for

The reason to go on

I?ve tried and I?ve tried

But it?s taking me so long

I might be better off

Closing my eyes

And God will come looking for me

In time

All of this dust, all of this past

All of this over and gone

And never coming back

All of this forgotten, not by me

All of this dust, all of this past

All of this over and gone

And never coming back

All of this forgotten, not by me

I can see myself

I look peaceful and pale

But underneath

I can barely inhale

I can hear myself

Singing that song

Over and over

Until it belongs to me
