lyrics

Rain still beats against the windshield. My haunted eyes stare through the glass. Lights and shapes race the twilight, phantoms in the weary haze. The images that fill my vision aren’t mirrored in the world outside. Because you’re not here. I’m left empty. Memories spinning through my mind.

Alone I drift past rows of streetlights, their glow obscured by pouring rain. Like endless tears against the window, their music bittersweet with pain. A silence filled with words unspoken. Your voice still ringing in my ears. We used to fill the hours with laughter. That sound is just a memory here.

My heart still longs to break this silence; to scream at the indifferent stars. To confess to you how much I miss those nights spent with you in my arms.

The sound of rain brings thoughts unbidden and memories of distant times. That first night that we shared together the sky looked like it does tonight. On the same stretch of rain-soaked road our smiles would meet in nervous joy. But on that night, so much like this one, the darkness never felt so cold.
