See You on the Other Side

Wait
 Don't walk away from me
 No it doesn't have to be the way you think, can I change your mind?
 Say, whatever you have to say
 It's the subtle break as you hesitate, but the words slip out
 I'll see you on the other side
 We turned our eyes before your words were done
 (As the shadows make their way)
 As the grey clouds swallowed up the setting sun
 (And the shadows that remain)
 We like statues just can't walk away
 There's no calming words, so be assured, we all will be erased
 Suddenly we stand in the silence of this moment and the fear is rushing in
 Nowhere to begin, no way to forget him
 Yesterday was here, now he's disappeared
 Never was a man so inviting, with light and love
 My broken heart can't obscure it
 The perfect, holy one has abandoned the plan
 And we're the only ones left to manage all the damage that was done
 Carefully killing this hope that I feel inside
 You are the ghost that I see when I close my eyes
 They silence the voices that tear down the frames
 Built by the ones we once trusted
 The friends that we bled with, now strangers became
 You've set sail and there's no return
 The wind carries away the seeds that we've sown are dead
 Into the grave, we've buried ourselves
 But all of your words can't be erased
