Still Here

Shadows come and go, but you stay
Not for love, but for another day
You were the one, who needed to find
Something not there, only in your mind.
We made a promise, that you couldn't keep
I opened the door, and saw you leave
Not even to look back, one last time
Because you knew the hurt, that was in my eyes.
Now you're back, just when it's too late
I've opened my door, and you want me to stay
But don't you think, that I didn't want you to go?
And because of me, you'll never know.
I see a creature, in the corner of my eye
I put the spirits down, and relax my mind
The Raven, a symbol of death, a signal of quitting
But maybe in death, There is a new beginning.
I put your picture down, and finally weep
The lightning strikes, and brings me to my knees
I feel your soul, and I have no fear
I begin to talk, like you're still here.
