Lyrics
As I drift away
Feeling myself moving away.
Far away from you
Getting distant from you.
I feel all alone in a crowded room
Despite being in a crowded place, feeling isolated and alone.
Thinking to myself
Contemplating with my own thoughts.
"There's no escape from this
Realizing there's no way to avoid certain emotions.
Fear
Anxiety or apprehension.
Regret
Feeling sorrow or disappointment about past actions.
Loneliness"
Sense of isolation or being alone.
Visions of love and hate
Memories of both affection and animosity.
A collage behind my eyes
A combination of images or thoughts in my mind.
Remnants of dying laughter
Traces of fading happiness.
Echoes of silent cries
Resonating sounds of unspoken pain.
I wish I didn't know now that
Regretting gaining knowledge that causes pain now.
I never knew then
Not being aware of something in the past that I know now.
Flashback
A sudden vivid memory of the past.
Memories punish me again
Past memories causing suffering again.
Sometimes I remember all the pain that I have seen
Recollection of the pain witnessed previously.
Sometimes I wonder what might have been
Contemplating alternate possibilities of the past.
Visions of love and hate
Similar recollections of love and hate.
A collage behind my eyes
A mix of emotions and thoughts within.
Remnants of dying laughter
Remaining echoes of laughter diminishing.
Echoes of silent cries
Soundless expressions of anguish.
And sometimes I despair
Feeling hopeless about my current state.
At who I've become
Displeased or unhappy with the person I've become.
I have to come to terms
Accepting and confronting my actions.
With what I've done
Coming to terms with the consequences of my actions.
The bittersweet taste of fate
Experiencing a mix of bitter and sweet outcomes influenced by fate.
We can't outrun the past
Unable to escape the repercussions of the past.
Destined to find an answer
Destined to discover a solution or resolution.
A strength I never lost
Realizing an inner strength that was never lost.
I know there is a way
Belief that there's a way forward despite uncertainties.
My future is not set
Recognizing that my future isn't predetermined.
For the tide has turned
Acknowledging a change in circumstances.
But still I never learned to live without regret
Struggling to live life without feeling remorse for past actions.
