I Want To See You Now

Days fade to grey
Into pale canvas of smoke and ashes
As my heart is far away

Years passed like one day in world’s swirl
Though we are still the same
Among this chaos of fears and thrill
We remain the same

When the world turns upside down
When life goes pale grey
I want you by my side

When the world falls in pieces
And the pain grows bad
It feels like there’s no tears
It feels like the dead end

When everything goes wrong
And feels like the end of the world
I want to feel your safe embrace

I want to see you
To hear you telling it’s alright
And fall asleep with you
To meet then sunrise

New day brings new hope
I believe so
Trying to keep my pain from others’ eyes
Surviving in this mess
Day by day through these years

I want to forget it all
As the world turns upside down
I want to let it flow
To feel my heart beating with yours in unison

Leaving everything behind
I want to see you now
