Haunts my present
Leaves a trail behind me
Allows me to think that I walk towards something better
But freedom in my soul
Is only as much as I let it be
Swirls and lines, calligraphy
Painting pictures, what it's ought to be
Whispers, silver linings, memories
Reality hurts to tell the truth
I never wanna leave
Can't I just stay here my darlin
Everlasting bliss is a little while away
Just like yesterday
Please don't slip away
They're paving the road down the path of confusion
Is this my soul or merely an illusion
Wandering to nowhere, my final destination
Is somewhere I know I'm meant to be
Swirls and lines, calligraphy
Painting pictures, what it's ought to be
Whispers, silver linings, memories
Reality hurts to tell the truth
I never wanna leave
Can't I just sing my song
So temporary in its bliss
Give me something to miss like yesterday
Please don't slip away
I never wanna leave
Can't I just stay here my darlin
Everlasting bliss is a little while away
Just like yesterday
Please don't slip away, yeah
