So Far Away

Here is my shadow...here is my heart,
See them both revealed silent and dark,
And here is our soul...does this image strike a spark,
Can you see a difference at all
Can you tell them apart ;

Now you know just where I stand,
So come forward and confront me...
Prosecute my words if you can,
I do not think you will ever truly see
Too blind and too sad,

I am close to the truth while you are still so far away,
I have embraced true faith while you are still hiding in shame,
You will never know truth when you cannot stop running,
You become more and more lost everyday
Soon you will never find your way home
See you are already so far away ;

Here in my hands I hold the dream,
To see the big picture is never as easy as it seems,
Here in my heart is the key that you need,
To really know the difference…
Between being owned and being free ;

Now I think you finally understand
I see the tears in your tapestry,
Show me the secret that makes you so sad and finally embrace me,
Because you know I am your truth yet you are still turning away,
I am the whisper inside you…
That you think you will outrun someday,
I know you're strong enough to take it
But you revel in your weakness,
Sinking deeper into your misery
You will never dig your way out,
A hiding place that turns into a grave
Still fading
When you are already so far away ;
So if I am but a whisper or a haunting primal scream,
What would be the difference
When you know you are a part of me,
Together forever
No matter your plans,
No matter your denial
You know fate demands,
See I am your future and you are my past,
I see you looking into the mirror
You see my eyes looking back,
I am your solemn reflection
You were my accusing surprise,
I am the truth that killed you
You were the seed that gave me life,
Now I see you really understand
You never had any choice but to face me,
You cannot take back what you have never had
This freedom
A destiny
You will never escape it ;

Because I am the truth and you are slowly fading away,
Yes I am the cage
A reality that you will never escape,
You are becoming a long lost memory
A ghostly fleeting vision,
A long gone memory
A discarded fraction of the final division

I am your tomorrow,
You are my yesterday

Already so far away :
