Wandering an endless garden
Time's passed since I thought of you often
As we walk out in the open
All I see is wasted time
Would you be mine I take it back

Try to be the one you want to
Growing silent as we argue
How many threads are left to undo
And I know you've got one
Locked in the chamber
Weighted and black

I know when you look at me
All you see is past
Every time I'm moving forward
You're looking back
Just when I need you'll be a moment too late

Getting caught up in the meaning
Losing track of what I'm seeing
Even on the lips I'm reading
Smoke fills the room and it surrounds my fist
Hits glass into flame

If I let my lip split open
Would you see it as an omen
Or is it my lack of emotion
That keeps me from unloading all that I'm one to bury inside?

I try to feel it out
As you fade in and out
Don't want to talk about
What's staring me down

I know when you look at me
All you see is past
Every time I'm moving forward
You're looking back
Just when I need you'll be a moment too late
You'll be a moment too late
