We met beneath the stormy skies of winter
And were so quickly swept away
It took two years to truly draw my breath
There was music,
The kind to stir your soul, and mine,
Together they danced
Together they sang
But mine was being led
The roads flew beneath us
We took the turns as one
The chorus swelled, the harmonies
Drove me to distraction
And through it all, my eyes were closed
Shut against what was
Shut against what was coming
The reverb brought me crashing down
Broken, on the ground, my eyes finally opened
I realized the music was gone
Gone the melodies
Gone the wind in my hair
Gone the steps I had worked so long to master
And in the silence
pain
