a ticking clock of lost memory making
a loner’s paradise
a riddled past of nowhere faces
adrift among the blackened stars
that’s where my destination lies
that’s who I’m going to know
imagination was my only shadow
forgotten and ashamed
a bread crumb trail so you can follow
adrift among the blackened stars
a moonlight party of make believe
will you join me here tonight?
I’ll send my rocket ship to take you
but your maybes are another time
don’t leave me here to live my life a bore
don’t leave me here alone
I knew you were the distant star
that’s where I’ve seen you go
and I knew you wouldn’t come to visit
and I knew you wouldn’t say goodbye
and I knew you were the one that heard me
speak these words of rhyme
and I wish you would have saved me from
the silence of alone
