Find Me - Forest Blakk.mp3

[00:02.194] I was once told that walking through a doorway could cause someone to forget
[00:05.717] Even the most precious memories they had
[00:08.447] Memories of good, memories of bad, memories of love and of loss
[00:14.921] All tucked away neatly
[00:17.212] Stored like the worn out blankets that were kept to dress the rainy days
[00:20.592] And bad habits that happen from time to time
[00:23.238] Or what it felt like to rest your head on a friend's shoulder
[00:26.811] That still carries with it the creases from where you last placed your heart
[00:30.109] Just like that
[00:32.539] Gone within a single step
[00:36.068] That somehow three beams and an imaginary line drawn across some old aching floorboards
[00:40.604] Were all that stood between you and the infinite silence
[00:44.570] Of the very things that once colored your mind with sound
[00:47.746] It's funny
[00:50.222] You can make yourself believe almost anything if you...
[00:54.341] If you think about it for long enough
[00:58.053] (Was that you?)....
[01:04.978] I was once told that the love I felt beating inside my chest
[01:08.890] Was nothing more than my mind playing an unfair trick on my heart
[01:13.260] And like a pair of dice dancing along the uneven pavement
[01:16.776] Their fate, much like yours or mine had already been decided
[01:21.498] That even the cracks that drew their faults between two opposing sides
[01:25.226] Could not escape a fate that was always destined to be sealed
[01:28.299] To think
[01:31.316] That someone could actually believe that the swelling tides of my heart
[01:34.347] Were no more than an anxious highway of ins and outs
[01:37.314] Anchoring my imagination to the castles I've been building in the sky...
[01:41.631] Well, maybe "they" are the crazy ones
[01:47.000] Then again, I have been known to misplace my hope in the way things fall
[01:52.005] And if I had to confess there stands a greater chance that I have all but lost my mind in here
[01:58.402] So I suppose it's better off this way
[02:03.163] Because I've always believed that the odds of finding what you seek
[02:06.422] Tend to favor those who are open to seeking them in the first place
[02:10.057] And I for one have never quite understood how odds stand to get even without that frame in mind
[02:17.021] To be clear
[02:19.102] I've seen a million faces
[02:22.034] I've seen a million different faces
[02:25.260] Each one mirroring that of your own
[02:28.420] And still, none of them felt like home to me
[02:33.001] None of them have felt like you
[02:35.525] So here we are
[02:38.109] And I can vaguely and strangely trace your outline
[02:42.772] I can remember what it felt like to hold you
[02:45.654] I can remember what it was like to stare blindly
[02:48.331] Into your eyes for what felt like an eternity
[02:51.169] How could I forget that?
[02:54.072] I could never forget that
[02:56.415] I could never forget you
[03:00.014] No matter how long it takes for my words to make their way
[03:02.485] Through the vastness of this place we've called home
[03:05.079] I unto you and you unto me
[03:06.912] I say them and will continue to do so
[03:09.383] Day after day
[03:11.182] Night after night
[03:12.359] Never knowing if you'll actually hear them
[03:15.233] There is no place for time here
[03:17.494] Just overlapping moments where I thought I'd found you
[03:21.142] Where I thought I heard the sound of your breath
[03:23.410] Where I felt your heart as it waited patiently for mine
[03:26.529] Retracing the steps that we left in the life before last
[03:29.519] Before our eyes closed
[03:32.309] Before the great divide
[03:34.700] Before a doorway stood between you and me
[03:39.514] As it stands
[03:41.576] I've found myself in that doorway again
[03:44.338] With both feet in and your heart on my sleeve
[03:47.522] But I can't bring myself to walk through this time
[03:50.490] Not yet at least
[03:52.835] Not until I take one last look and see that it was you
[03:56.934] That it was always you
[03:59.704] Our hearts strewn across those old fragile floorboards
[04:03.390] The silhouettes of each and every one of our memories
[04:05.937] Playing out like a story that we both know we've seen before
[04:09.206] I remember now
[04:11.954] This was where I first found you
[04:14.970] And beyond those closed doors
[04:17.663] I will find you again
[04:20.218] My love
[04:22.875] I will find you again
[04:29.083] I will find you again
[04:34.090] I will find you...
