Clarity

What happens when circumstances
Leave us both alone
Out of control
We had plans laid out for a home
I'm not used to this
I never missed anything before

I thought that things would fade when I couldn't see your face
I know you had to leave
But why do I feel so displaced?

I'm so far gone
And you're so far away
I know you had to leave
But how I wish you stayed

Just because there's clarity, doesn't mean there's closure
I know where you are, but that doesn't bring us closer
I haven't forgot a single promise I made
But I can't make them happen

I'm back to grey, and you can't bring the color back again

(This clarity won't bring you home)

I used to find comfort in being hopeless
At least the emptiness seemed consistent
My faults, my mistakes
At least I'm the one who's in control
But, I had a reason to change
To better myself for you although
To be my best for you, it was best for you to go

I'm so far gone
And you're so far away
I know you had to leave (I know you had to leave)
Just come back home

Just because there's clarity, doesn't mean there's closure
I know where you are, but that doesn't bring us closer
I haven't forgot a single promise I made
But I can't make them happen

I'm back to grey, and you can't bring the color back again
