Inverse



When the rain you see isn't the same rain you used to see
When the clouds you see isn't the same clouds you used to see
When the trees you see isn't the same trees you used to see
When the moon you see isn't the same moon you used to see

How can certain things be so familiar yet so strange
How can certain things be so different yet so much like home
How can certain things be so close to you yet so distant
How can certain things be so far away yet the most dear

How can you call me yours when you're not even mine

Betrayal



A person that I thought I knew became a stranger
A place that I used to call home became so foreign

I wanted to see myself in the mirror but I see no reflection
Have I left myself too far that I can't find it anymore

Pictures that I captured are now smudged
Memories that I always had in my head are now blurry

The flower that I used to pluck is now full of thorns
The beach that I used to visit has abandoned its shore

Roads that I used to take are now barbed
Music that I always listened to is now muted

The only way to leave is to never return
And the only thing that I can rely on is the words that I've written
