I tried to grasp that tepid atmosphere I gouge my way through the tender surface The far-off demeanor, the blank stares Take my hand and come back to me A piece of me is grafted on the surface of its vaporous shape Desperate to keep up with the waves Desperate to be an indelible part of it I'm trying to sense a dimension that isn't there Holding as tightly as I can Collision is the only way to the core I need to see the tears Spawn of those precious moments when we finally met again This will not dissolve in time I'll make it last, sculpting a monument to what we had I realize that we cannot go back So we harm ourselves just to check that we're still there Under layers of defense mechanisms I realize... We cannot go back Desperate to keep up with the waves Desperate to be an indelible part of it This will not dissolve in time I'll make it last, sculpting a monument to what we had This will not dissolve in time I'll make it last, sculpting a monument to what we had Finally, your vision strikes me I've been fighting for this glimmer of you One day, I will take you away Ephemeral, subject to the whims of change Take my hand and come back to me This will not dissolve in time Take my hand and come back to me This will not dissolve in time
