Dashboard

(album: Hyperreal - 2018)

Sunlight dying on the dashboard until
Our whole world turns to peach, and you're just out of reach
Who am I to ever wake up again if you're gone?
Now you're gone

And I'll never be the same
Your warmth, so comforting, escapes
And I'm left aching

I replay the haunting news
Though I can't accept the truth, you're so far away
And my heart's forever changed
But in my dreams we don't need cars
Cause we all occupy a part of one of God's eternal scars
And we're singing in the dark

And I'll never be the same
Your warmth, so comforting, escapes
And I'm left aching
I hear you call my name
Your voice reverberates through time
But mine forsakes me

Your absence is an echo screaming, "let go"
But I can't let go
How does a one friend become a ghost
Or a shadow with a smoke ring halo?

And I'll never be the same
Your warmth, so comforting, escapes
And I'm left aching
I hear you call my name
Your voice reverberates through time
But mine forsakes me

Who am I to ever wake up again if you're gone?
Now you're gone
Here I lie dying on the dashboard until
My whole world fades to dark
And you're back in my arms
