It Was Five Years Ago

It was five years ago, I recall. Empty station, no sound at all. I kept changing the towns, the names. Faces came and went. You ran onto the platform then. Woke me up from my sleep again. And your spring cut straight through my chest, Breaking every fence. You destroyed my old calm world. Turned my heart to a shooting field. You were aiming with love. I had no chance to survive. Like a dog I obeyed your call. Lost my peace, I had lost it all. As I walked to the sweetest death of my Life. It was five years ago that day. Fire burned in your eyes that way. But the light slowly died, turning black and white. You have gone past the edge of sun. Said goodbye, well, that's done. When we're ashes and dust, there's no point to Fight. Mm, gray and tired the city cried. On the swings up and down I'd fly. Up to heaven and down on the stones below. I don't blame you, I tied the rope. Played with fate with a fool's hope. And I risked it all in one throw. Bet my life, you know. It was five years ago that day. Fire burned in your eyes that way. But the light slowly died, turning black and white. You have gone past the edge of sun. Said goodbye, well, that's done. When we're ashes and dust, there's no point to Fight.
