about

This is not only a song about a lost love, but also a song of self reflection. I dedicate this track to a lost love who loved this track.

lyrics

You're an intricate one,
A living love and hate riddle,
Working hard to outrun,
Any joy, though there's little,
When I think that we're finally through these,
Selfish acts of scorn,
You disappear in a frightened flee,
You bury me down now, to be reborn,

Cause I found love in all the wrong places,
I found joy in sad, sad embraces,
I'm getting lost in all of the traces,
Of what could be, what could be,

Apartment's empty again,
Must be two or three weeks now,
Where should my search begin?
I love you still, but I don't know how,
Called your family again last week to see where you had gone,
You should visit them soon they miss you,
They want to know you're safe and carrying on,

Cause you find love in all the wrong places,
And you find joy in sad, sad embraces,
You're getting lost in all of the traces,
Of what could be, what could be,
Your majesty with all of your graces,
I played three kings, but you had four aces,
Each line I draw so easily erases,
What could be, what could be,

It's strange to me, how you have more than two faces,
Yet you'll never change, you're the pupa in stasis,
Each sad memory completely replaces,
What could be, what could be,
Cause I found love in all the wrong places,
And I found joy in sad, sad embraces,
I'm getting lost in all of the traces,
Of what could be, what could be
