When the Dawn Meets the End

Tell me where have you been. 
It was quiet and cold, 
I was alone, 
Searching. 

So I guess, 
If it means anything to you, 
You can say something, 
Or nothing at all. 

You will leave me to fend for myself. 

I remember a time when I, 
Didn't have to fight for you, 
Everything was easy, 
There was no reason to cry over you. 

I never had to struggle, 
Break into your castle, 
The bricks make you shiver, 
The foundation and the towers. 

Now I run, 
Into an empty calm, 
Where there is no calm at all.
Nothing is easier under the gun. 

Tell me where have you been. 
Where are you now? 
I cannot prosper in this misery, 
It takes a hold of me. 

Take me under, 
Bury me under all of the flowers, 
Every morning you can look out of the windows, 
And there will be a beautiful smile. 

When the dawn meets the end, 
Enough said, 
I won't get in your way, 
Just tell me where have you been. 

I was alone, 
Searching, 
I am still alone, 
Grieving.
