Torn to Shreds

Passing emotions lead us to Places so far in the past Encounters, persons, themes That means so much to us Everytime when go there It's different again New shades appear - The old fades away Nuances chance our view Sometimes darkness - Sometimes light Day becomes the blackest light When present and memory collide We sway the unwritten past A complicated quest just to find The desired peace of mind Invisible wounds Opened wide Aversion turns into glorification Hate turns into an indefinable kind of love Will we ever forgive? Will we ever forget? Looking at it in retrospect Do we regret It's just a matter of our view A matter of our mood Unfixable, unchanceable Yet impermanent A place inside our heads Chaotic and full of shreds Shreds of yesteryear That won't disappear Dismembered and put together Consistence - Tough as a feather Lightweight but there to stay Though details fade away Though details fade away The unwritten past We sway We sway the unwritten past Passing emotions lead us to Places so far in the past Encounters, persons, themes That means so much to us Sometimes clarity - Sometimes blur The here and now - A saboteur Manipulating the scene No chance to intervene Everytime when go there It's different again New shades appear - The old fades away Nuances chance our view Aversion turns into glorification Hate turns into an indefinable kind of love
