One of Us Is Gone

Our words can never do it

One of us is gone

No faith, no fear, no nothing

Just can't believe it

Close now to the end

No epiphanies

We'd rather face indifference

Than any spark of hope

Remain where sanity holds you

Whatever happens, happens

Remain where sanity holds you close

Whatever happens

Words that drew a future

In every shade of grey

This quiet understanding

Is not enough

Stay in this forever

We'll speak your name

As we move in memory

Trapped in time

Closer to the end

Telling no more lies

In strength and understanding

We are alone

So face the greatest emptiness

As it falls around you

On every step of the way

To the ever, the ever opening night

These are the longest hours

Not knowing what time will grant us

These are the words that compose the dark

This is now where we are

And one of us is gone

Our words can never do it

One of us is gone

One of us is gone
