Cycles of You - Joe Bataan

In the morning, as I make my way down the sidewalk

I pass your doorstep on my way to a world with no pain

Do I see you as you smile at me through your window

In shades of blue, I turn away ‘cause it’s all in my mind

It’s a world that I created

On the day that you moved on

All my suffering has been traded

For the lie that you’re not gone

Things are always what they seem

But my whole world, just a dream

Just a dream

It’s a world that I created

On the day that you moved on

All my suffering has been traded

For the lie that you’re not gone

Things are always what they seem

But my whole world, just a dream

Just a dream

Why not tell me

As you act if I should see you

Am I losing?

Or do I even have something to lose?

But you know me, I am someone who doesn’t like changing

And I’m sorry, I don’t think I could change anyway

People ask me what I’m doing

And I know it’s not sincere

Watching my life turn to ruin

Just pretending you’re still here

Am I slowly going blind?

My eyes are open, I can’t see

I can’t see

People ask me what I’m doing

And I know it’s not sincere

Watching my life turn to ruin

Just pretending you’re still here

Am I slowly going blind?

My eyes are open, I can’t see

I can’t see

In the evening, as I’m gazing at all of the rooftops

I start walking across all of them to get to you

And it haunts me, ‘cause I know that you’re out there somewhere

I call your name, but it doesn’t make a difference now

In my hand I held a diamond

And I tossed up and down

Didn’t pay it much attention

Till' it fell right through the ground

Who did I think I was fooling

It was merely only me

Only me

In my hand I held a diamond

And I tossed up and down

Didn’t pay it much attention

Till' it fell right through the ground

Who did I think I was fooling

It was merely only me

Only me
