Defuse the Past

What the fuck have you done?
What is this that I hear?
No, I don't understand nor approve

Your choise of solution
I thought that much was clear

And it's way too quiet now
The lights are on
But there's no sound
A fresh new coat of paint
To wash the thoughts away

A ghost unseen, from the window
Notes be pouring out
If only I could grab
You by your face and shout:

Hear me now!
I don't know where or when
But it gets better somehow
The pain you feel, it won't last
It will pass
Just look away
From the hourglass

The dye is cast, just not in
The shape or form of which we asked
Defuse the past

His problems got the best of him
With weight like that he couldn't win
It would've taken the strength of a
Mountain not to come apart
The biggest waste is not to live
A waste like that I can't forgive
I will never be at peace with what
You've done

Old friend in hand, the strings his
Gateway to a calm
The magic in his fingers
The whole world in his palm

Hear me now!
I don't know where or when
But it gets better somehow
The pain you feel, it won't last
It will pass
Just look away from the hourglass

The dye is cast, just not in the shape
Or form of which we asked
Defuse the past
