Looking back through The window in the door that now has closed The looking glass that loss has tinted rose At the secrets of the path we never chose
We lose ourselves there As we fall into the arms of the unseen Of all that never was but should have been Beyond the day that woke us from the dream
Chorus: And it's a little late to speculate on what we could have done It's a little late to overstate the obvious We considered every move we made We did what we thought best So release the fist of dirt into the grave And lay the ghost to rest
Let it go with The hurt of all the promises unkept The pride behind apologies unsaid And the tragedy of hope they left for dead
Because it's as fruitless As the tears in the sour milk we spilt On the ruins of the tower that we built And the silence and the loneliness of guilt
(Chorus)
This one's over No phoenix from these ashes will arise So let the tears upon the lashes of your eyes Fall to the desert ground and bring new life
Walk away now I'm not saying that we can or should forget Just don't cloud your every sunrise with regret The curtain hasn't fallen on us yet The curtain hasn't fallen on us yet The curtain hasn't fallen on us yet
