Year Away

When this all falls apart, we'll only see your heart
No more staring at the screen, it's time to really be seen

So what will you have to say after a year away?
What’s been lost, what’s been found, are you just kicking time around?
How’s your heart, how’s your head, did you lose a friend?
I didn’t call, didn’t reach out, though I swear I was concerned

But information, it gets lost
And we all pay the cost
This might be our last shot
Time to give it all we’ve got

So what will you have to say after a year away?
What’s been lost, what’s been found, are you just dragging us around?
How’s your heart, how’s your head, did you lose a friend?
You didn’t call, didn’t reach out though I’m sure you were concerned

‘Cause I was lost, I was fine, I was petrified
I stayed in, lost track of time, the walls closed in I nearly lost my mind
I walked out as the streets had begun to burn
Did my best, tried to learn, listened close as they shared every crime

I was alone and moved home and stared at the screen
Believed almost anything, spread lies, got sick on only pride

I was judged, I lost touch and learned how to cope
Lost a friend to the rope, held onto hope with all my might
I held on to you
