This matters more with time Than anything I know This object permanence Keeps you with me 'til the end Inconsequential I may be I know Inside the silence In truth divided I have lost myself again When words are not enough And time is not the healer What is gone inside Has left me here without This hardened heart resists I'm left here barely standing What lies behind the fear Belies the grand perspective When I don't want to see it And I don't want to hear The world is silent Inside the fire I cannot see Inside I cannot find you In truth divided I don't believe I have lost myself again This search within Has gone inside And left without
