So this is permanence, love's shattered pride
What once was innocence turned on it's side
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move
Deep in the memory of what once was loveOh, how I realized I wanted time
Put into perspective, tried so hard to find
Just for one moment I thought I'd got my way
Destiny unfolded, watched it slip awayExcessive flash points beyond all reach
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find
Valueless collection of hopes and past desiresI never realized the lengths I'd have to go
All the darkest corners of a sense I didn't know
Just for one moment, hearing someone call
Looked beyond the day in hand, there's nothing there at all
