Regret, and missing the friend you lost for self concern.

lyrics

Sometimes your face flashes in my mind
Like a bell ringing in the sky,
The pain of your absence and the shame of my coldness
Surge through my body in my blood and bones and marrow.

I curse the moment that I fell for my dirty self serving spell,
Enchanted by a fearsome darkness and the ease of aloneness.

Your heart still beats somewhere in this twisted beautiful world
Your feet still walk streets they are lucky to be under you
Flowers still turn to the shining of your eyes
Stars still burn in the midnight blue of your mind.

I never thought that I would be so many things that I am,
I never thought that I could lose so many things I never had.
The mirror shows a different face than it did when I knew you
It bears a scar or two, of knowing how much I hurt you.

I want to pick up the phone
I still remember your number
I look for you in the night
All alone in the sky.

Your heart still beats somewhere in this twisted beautiful world
Your feet still walk streets they are lucky to be under you
Flowers still turn to the shining of your eyes
Stars still burn in the midnight blue of your mind.
