Taken by surprise
The look you hold in your eyes.
A painful expression.
It's full of aggression.
And if you could see
The pain in me
You'd look to the stars
As if they aren't very far.

And this could be
Our quick remedy.
You're falling fast.
Oh, please don't come back.
Reaching for this graceful goodbye
Tearing it apart with the tears in my eyes.
And this could be
Our quick remedy.
You're falling fast.
Oh, please don't come back.

Dying composition
Of the distance in store.
Time might replace
The scrapes and the sores.
Clarity, oh please bring it to me.
You'll look in my eyes
As I apologize.

And this could be
Our quick remedy.
You're falling fast.
Oh, please don't come back.
Reaching for this graceful goodbye
Tearing it apart with the tears in my eyes.
And this could be
Our quick remedy.
You're falling fast.
Oh, please don't come back.

You're flying away,
A young lost boy today.
Scared and dissappointed.
I'm sorry you've cried.
Audacity in the ears that bleed.
Retrace these choices.
You've always tried.
But...

...this could be
Our quick remedy.
You're falling fast.
Oh, please don't come back.
Reaching for this graceful goodbye
Tearing it apart with the tears in my eyes.
But this could be
Our quick remedy.
You're falling fast.
Oh, please don't come back.
