The walls closed in, and I just let them stay

I watched the world outside just drift away.

In a well of my own making, dark and deep

I traded every promise I was meant to keep.

Time was a river running past my door

I didn’t reach for it, I didn’t ask for more.

I stayed in shadows while you lived in the light

I chose the silence over every honest fight.

Oh, the life I left behind has finally caught me now

I’m standing in the wreckage, and I don’t remember how.

I betrayed the hands that tried to pull me through

After all the hollow paths, I’m crawling back to you.

I see the scars I left upon your grace

The lines of waiting written on your face.

I was a ghost while you were building up the walls

Ignoring every echo, every time you’d call.

Where was I?

God, I was so wrong!

It's too late!

Tell me it's not too late!

Oh, the life I left behind has finally caught me now

I’m standing in the wreckage, and I don’t remember how.

I betrayed the hands that tried to pull me through

After all the hollow paths, I’m crawling back to you.

I’m here now...

I’m so sorry...

I was gone so long.
