I've been through a terrible break-up. Thoughts of her betrayal and hatred for her world and what actions she took against me build alongside my love and the longing for her, the perfection I can no longer have. Even if I were to somehow carve myself a place in her life again, the relationship would be corrupted and tainted by the past that is currently my present. This song is a final passage into the dream world I held onto. The world of eternal summer, eternal youth, a reality we forged for ourselves to be together forever. Maybe there is a chance that she'd find herself there as well, my excuse for being there was pre-scripted. These things I feel are surely only pangs of True Emotion, the memories brought me back. Not any real feelings. This lie reveals the flaw inside me, the part of me that refuses to let go. A desperate claw that has hooked itself into the very fabric of the dream. She sees the flaw, and it posesses me to speak. To tell her of the Promises of our youth, our Truths passed. And how much they could've meant to us now. And how much I was pained by our seperation. But I do not know regret now, now that I'm telling her how I felt. With this confession, I have finally gathered the strength to sever the strand that binds me to this Dream. And with that, I feel the futility of my efforts to divorce myself from these feelings. They are persistent. And I had ignored the Truth. For I felt the death throes of these feelings even now. I will not bring myself to try to find this dream again, though it costs me my life, I cannot fall back to the fantasies of our Youth. No longer inside of me, somewhere, these feelings and this dream live on. In blissful futility. For "Eternity awaits..." |
