You never could save my mind
You watched me fall deeper into the addiction
Crashing through the waves just so I could breathe
It broke my heart watching you leave
I thought everything would fall into place
I thought we would love forever
But I realised, soon enough, I'm all out of time
I had to grow up in this ghost town of forgotten dreams
Such a sad boy, I can't believe life is real
In tears of despair
I lost myself in your poetry
Hoping I could escape the pain
We stood there in the rain like sell outs
In the loud world psychobabble, mouths sewn shut
We scream but no one hears us
They only really want the money and nothing more
No one cares when we're dead on the floor
Thinking about, you know
The blue sky of youth's summer
I never thought our friendship would end
But I haven't heard from you again
Since that time when you left
Zen is speaking in Arabic, he knows it well
But Ruddy seems more like a stranger
It's been so long since we've been together
And I don't know if I know him anymore
I've forgotten how it was
The tapestry of the epiphany
Contagious lust
I want to tell you how I feel
But I don't know how to tell you how I feel
There are some things I can't say out loud
How I wanted your touch
I wanted to make you proud of me
I wanted to tell you how I feel
But I don't know how to tell you how I feel
There are some things I can't say out loud.

So true & poignant:
'I want to tell you how I feel
But I don't know how to tell you how I feel'
