Days to dust

See the dust fly
too late, too late to say goodbye
hear the wind sigh,
too late for the worn-out alibi
all the things you had in mind
all these things come through the other side
 
far removed now
anyway, i hear that's how it goes
just pretend now
make believe in ways you never know
everything can feel arranged
everything can feel a sudden strain
 
i oughta, i oughta find someone
to take the pain away
i oughta, i oughta find the one
that you had sent away
i oughta, i oughta find
someone to read my mind
 
always knew i
would come around to this but then again
all the days fly
now i long to steal them back again
see the dust fly
see the light that's passed you by
see the love fly
from the darkness in your eyes
 
i oughta, i oughta find someone
to take the pain away
i oughta, i oughta find the one
what you had sent away
i oughta, i oughta find
some hope to pull me through the day
i oughta, i oughta find someone
to take the pain away
