So this is permanence, love's shattered pride.
What once was innocence, turned on its side.
A cloud hangs over me, marks every move,
Deep in the memory, of what once was love.

I never realised how I wanted time,
Put into perspective, I've tried so hard to find.
Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way.
Destiny unfolded, I watched it slip away.

Excessive flashpoints, beyond all reach,
Solitary demands for all I'd like to keep.
Let's take a ride out, see what we can find,
A valueless collection of hopes and past desires.

Just for one moment

I never realised the lengths I'd have to go,
All the darkest corners of myself I didn't know.
Just for one moment, I thought I heard you call,
Destiny unfolded on the ground, there's noone there at all.

Now that I've realised that it's all gone wrong,
Gotta find my therapy, treatment takes too long.
Deep in the heart of sympathy held sway,
Gotta find my destiny, before it gets too late.
