Didn't think today would be
The one that got away
Assumed you'd be, but not forever
Slipping in and out of frame

And in the absence of the night
The one I've known for all my life
Rearranged, a dying flame
Into memories and a name

You're a stranger to me now
So familiar, too, somehow

Even after medicine
The menace holds his gaze
He can see that I'm afraid
As I watch you fade away

And I would offer him a drink
But I know enough to think
There's no use in trying to persuade
From the cradle to the grave

You look different after dark
You're not a line, you're an arc

And I don't want to see it end
I find it hard to comprehend
But I cannot keep pretending
There is anything preventing you

Moving on
Moving on
Moving on

In this old abandoned house
A creature lies awake
Born beneath the rotting floorboards
Where the light will never take

When all that was has waxed and waned
Somehow nothing else has changed
Still in motion, left of frame
Gone as simply as you came
