The Ether

it broke my heart for me

to find out what i've done

it took a lot for me

to see how far you've come

and i don't want to play the villain

in this story anymore

with the way the light is hitting me

that's all i'm good for

cause i was bending

through the ether and it

seemed like someone else's life

got caught up in the moment

when you know

that nothing else is right

and now i'll walk away

i've had some room to breathe

and time to understand

i can't hold you fragile heart

when i have clumsy hands

if the lesson doesn't sting enough

i might have lost a friend

and it's a terrifying thought

i'll never be this close again

could it be that i'm alone

living in a place

that's not my home

i could meet you halfway
