Tom Williams - But

I can see through you but can you see me?
A charade of kindness but taken to extremes.
You squint and refocus but still isn't clear.
Then just smile but it doesn't take away fear.

Outside we're walking but never away for long.
Separated while talking but are you sure I'm gone?
The wind throws a gust but my hair just stays the same.
You laugh at my jokes but inside you know they're lame.

Taken for granted you understand but
Taken for granted you understand but

The churchyard forgotten but still that's not what you meant.
Slight nod when you talk but we all just need to vent.
I offer to carry but no you turn it down.
We've been here before but still you come around.

The pictures show you but you remain not here.
Still preserves your memory but still you remain not here.
Though I am older but you're forever big.
I'll carry you with me but only inside my head.

Taken for granted you understand but
Taken for granted you understand but
