riley Lyrics

Riley

Had a feeling

I could see you

With my blindfold mind's eye

When you

Told a story

It had come from somewhere else

Riley

Whispered softly

Without whispering

Without being present

Fearing all above us

And surrounding

Are you above, in astral thoughts?

Or watching from below on the page I left to rot

When you close your eyes, what do you see?

When you close your eyes?

Riley

In the years since

I had found you

I was puzzled, perplexed

Watching from within us

Scared of erasing yourself

Riley

You are more than

Just a thought in

Lieu of passing breezes

Sorry

I ignored you

Left for so long

Unavowed

Are you above, in astral thoughts?

Or watching from below on the page I left to rot

When you close your eyes, what do you see?

When you close your eyes?

Riley

Bears repeating

That I love you

And I want you safe

But breathing

Is a challenge

And it's hard to stay awake

Riley

If it could be

We could make ourselves

Locked in arms eternal

Statues

In the garden

To spectate eternal life

You weren't above in astral thoughts

And you weren't down below, and I wouldn't let you rot

When you closed your eyes, all you saw was me

When you closed your eyes, I would never let you go

cause you're a part of me
