Solace

Solace - Aaron Sprinkle

I've lived this day

A thousand times

It won't go away

And all I can see

Are the eyes

Of people I will never be

And it makes me ill

The way

You love me still

I can't decide

If you're the missing piece

Buried in my

Mind

Immersed in sand

I try to reach

Try to take your hand

And it makes me ill

The way you love me still

I think back to the days I was around

And it brings me down

To a place

I've never been

I think back on a picture of

A child

And dream awhile

All the more I

Miss your perfect

Ever shaking heart

Solace came

With a drop of blood

And a taste of

Shame

When you took my turn

You struck

A match and you let it burn

And it makes me ill

The way you love me still

I think back to the days

I was around

And it brings me down to a place

I've never been

I think back on a picture of a

Child

And dream awhile

All the more I

Miss your perfect

Ever shaking heart
