Still Remains

Fates Warning

I had so much to say
   But no words to speak
   The feelings were strong
   But I was only weak

   So there we were again
   Tragic and absurd
   Choking on every line
   And every final word

   A few pages from an old diary
   A dusty shelf, an unread history
   All these words and memories
   Are all of you that's really left for me

   And a fading memory
   Can't cloud the pain
   When the voice is gone
   The words still remains

   And the years that fall away
   Can't stop the rains
   When illusion's gone
   The truth still remains

   A few lines from life's long soliloquy
   A dying voice in one part harmony
   All these words and memories
   Are all of you that's really left for me

   And a fading memory
   Can't cloud the pain
   When the voice is gone
   The words still remains

   And the years that fall away
   Can't stop the rains
   When illusion's gone
   The truth still remains

   A final moment of clarity
   A touch, a look, a last apology
   All these words and memories
   Are all of you that's left for me

   And a fading memory
   Can't cloud the pain
   When the voice is gone
   The words still remains

   And the years that fall away
   Can't stop the rains
   When illusion's gone
   The truth still remains

   Where is the way
     where is direction
     the ever open arms
     of over protection
   Where is the hope
     where is laughter
     the wild winter dreams
     of happy ever after

   Deep in the night
   Underneath the darkest skies
   Searching for some sign or some distant light
   Searching yet unheard
   Repeating every line
   And every final word

   They remain, they remain
   You still remain
   All these words and memories
   And everything you were to me
   They remain, they remain
   You still remain

   And here I am again
   Tragic and absurd
   Repeating every line
   And every final word
