Go before you stay

Go, you should go now
You’ve no voice to speak somehow
While we sit in silence,
without any glance

Too much past that squeezes
Too tight it never eases
Too little left when time decides
Let it roll back, maybe truth hides

Go before you stay
Leave, don’t fade away
Too much pain, too much fight
We need a new start tonight

Was there love, or just the numbers
Counting nights and wasted slumbers
On nights full of wishes, dark and deep
One step to catch the dreams we keep

And when I let go of your hand
I feel still can stand
It hurts when no words remain
Linger in the heart, a quiet pain

Go before you stay
Leave, don’t fade away
Too much pain, too much fight
We need a new start tonight

Before you remain forever
Every ghost of the past lives clever
Immortal in its memory
Go, before it all slips free
