Where Time Once Stood Still

like one of those old movies
 playing round and round
 my mind only shows me
 what i want to see
 from lost love to fear
 everyone's here
 in laughter and tears
 in a garden of red
 where innocence was shared
 that last lingering kiss
 is all that i'll miss
 this army of voices
 couldn't be more real
 a lost lonely figure
 where time once stood still
 so much sadness and silence in memories
 the seething dark shadow
 will catch up in the end
 just playing host
 to the memories of a ghost
 a colourful playground
 swings blowing in the breeze
 the sound of our laughter
 echoes through the streets
 a slowing heartbeat
 quieter with each breath
 and with every unmissed death
 in a garden of red
 where innocence was shared
 that last lingering kiss
 is all that i'll miss
 this army of voices
 couldn't be more real
 a lost lonely figure
 where time once stood still
 where time once stood still
