"Rushing through the crowd,
all a flash before your eyes.
Too fast for smiles and
for polite goodbyes.
Though you said
you gave up runnin' so long ago,
and yet here you are running
to meet tomorrow
before you've met today.
What happened to yesterday?
What happened to today?
To make you cry inside,
get up and runaway?
I hope she has found someplace warm,
has found a place to stay,
my poor little girl, the sweet, sad runaway.
The wind just blows
the shadows away
as you pray
to meet another day,
unable to stop hoping for a day
that will make you smile,
one that seems to be worth
all the pain you experience all the while.
Watch the candle
burn in front of the cross,
for each time prayer made no difference,
with each fire burning from loss.
Gone is the light of day.
What happened to yesterday?
What happened to today?
To make you cry inside,
get up and runaway?
Find your sanctuary in dreams stranger than fiction
and believe those lies with conviction
so you might just live to see the next reason to remember..."

- Title: Wishing on Fading Memories
- Artist: Deaths Calling Card
- Description: Another train of thoughts I decided to write down; the purpose of this piece is not really noteable, so much as the thoughts it leads us to and perhaps how relateable it is to other things and situations.
