Through the times he was linked to the earth by you Saw the world by his eyes, taught by yours Could bury it all near the surface To clean the wounds to mask the pain Your voice ringing in his head Focused mind over the mire, knowing how to cross the fire Such a pleasant sound, going round and round again One day and one step closer to death His face reflected in the mirror A silence coming from everywhere And the need to disappear Close to you Close to you One more day Dead to you Through the times he was bounded to the ground by me Breathing the harsh wind coming Unspoken words almost whispered Gone forever with just a sound One day and one step closer to death The sound of a voice fading away Looks at his hands and wonders If he was nothing but you and me You and me You and me
