I'm counting down the days to the rest of my life,

but I'm tethered to the weight of my past.

Unlike others, my ghosts are as dear as my friends,

I never imagined this all wouldn't last.

I see the cracks forming, the floor is falling,

But i'm frozen in place with my heart,

Every street has a memory, each building a thought, 

I never imagined we would part. 

My soul is tearing, I can feel it bleed,

as the past and the future fight on,

It's a ying-yang fiasco I never saw coming 

But i know dusk must come before dawn.
