Embrace It

Walk, just keep walking.
Try to escape away from them.
Try to erase them from your mind,
But in the back of your mind you know
There is no way to escape.
Those memories are going back,
getting transformed into crystalline shadows
that dance along with your dreams.
Tell me, are you still dreaming?
Or are you wide awake?
Suddenly, you become one and the same
with the inhabitants of the ethereal realm
where tender illusions live.
Your past lovers and broken dreams
are always by your side,
keeping you company
in the darkest hour of the night.
If you can't deny or erase
these dark kind of feelings,
then learn to live with them.
Embrace that lingering darkness
that gives color to your soul.
