Shane Hunt - Just Another Star-Crossed Tragedy

I wrote it out a million times
Before I finally realized
There's nothing I can do to quit you
I caught a trace of your perfume
As I was walking through my room
I stop to see if you'll materialize
But you don't
You don't

Every time I try to speak
These thoughts emerge I can't complete
I'm at a loss to find what's on my mind
I sleepwalk through the serpentine
Imbroglios that you design
Your scent has lingered on my sheets for weeks
So I don't
I don't

Because I'm hanging onto the fear that keeps you here
You're feeding off of the fear that keeps me near
And I can't seem to quit you

The northern lights will shine tonight
Like apparitions taking flight
The present tense is just a metaphor
For walking backwards towards a door
To put us where we were before
But you're still in my mind when you're out of sight
So they won't
They won't

Calamity won't cover up
Like white out poured onto blacktop
A superficial fix is not a change
With all the thoughts we've re-arranged
Our hearts somehow remain estranged
Once a rift begins it never stops
No it won't
It won't

Because I'm hanging onto the fear that keeps you here
You're feeding off of the fear that keeps me near
And I can't seem to quit you

I believe you
I can't leave you
I believe you
I can't leave you
I believe you
I won't leave, no
I believe you
I can't stay here anymore
