How come you can't see me...
Am i invisible
Or do i just blend in
So well that i can just
Be rendered as someone else
Or even mistaken
For someone from long ago
My chameleon color scheme
Blending into wherever i go
Disguising me from the world
Safely hiding me
From even myself
A barrier...protection
Keeping it all out
Holding it all in
Letting it go
Pulling it in
How can someone just disappear
How come you can't see me...
Am i dead to you?
Do i not exist
Could it be that i'm floating somewhere
Not even aware i'm gone
Could this be hell
Six feet under
I cry out for help
But no one can hear me
The dirt drowns out my cries
The crows caw
The vultures come
But i am undead
Stuck in this abyss
Dying but not dead
Living but not alive
Frozen in this wretched state
How can i just disappear
How come you can't see me...
Have i lost all contact
Am i lost in space
And the world's been destroyed
Are you gone and i'm just not aware
Could you have died
And no one told me
You're now in my place
Six feet under
But it doesn't feel right
It doesn't seem possible
The bomb went off premature
No survivors
Can i even cry
That you've disappeared
While i watch from space
In my darkness
How can you just disappear
How come you can't see me...
Does the chord resonate
Then disappear
Or does it keep ringing in your ears
Reminding you
That they are here
Is it all in your mind
The soft slow chiming of the bells
Lining the air
Permeating it with their gentle air
But they too disappear into the night
All traces gone when midnight strikes
The dark night consumes them
Heart and soul
Leaving traces of what once was
Resonating
Softer and softer
Until all is gone
How can we all just disappear
