Packing up the pictures in an old shoe box
It`s so silent I can almost hear you walk
Down the hall standing in front of that window
If heaven is so high, then why are you so low?
Does it feel, that you`re taking back the love that made him real
In the darkness you will always see his face
And I could never take the place of him
Today I`m sleeping in
Woke up it`s too late and I should be in school
There`s always something wrong when you ignore the rules
Never want to see myself in front of that window
Sucking up your tears, didn`t want to let me know too much
Reaching out your hand for one last touch
Take me with you, everybody here is fake
And I don`t wanna feel the same when you give in
In a lifetime, time will always take our place
But I will lay here shielded from the pain
This is a long time from today
You gave me all that I could take
And gave me strength to carry on
In the darkness, you will always see his face
And I don`t wanna be there when you do, give in
In a lifetime, time will always take our place
And I will lay here shielded from the pain
I do whatever I want, you never let me down
I always know when lost somehow you`re found
Although life has all thse consequences now
And that`s OK, and that`s OK
