Dying Horizon

I could have run with you forever
Look in your angry eyes and see
That you could hate the entire world
But still somehow take the time to love me
Your eyes could set the world on fire
Your laugh could light up the room
Your walk could turn every head
Your thoughts always spelled your doom
In your presence, I've never been higher
Free and wild, we hit the streets and didn't care
Life was booze and drugs and leaping through fire
Youth was a long game of truth or dare
Your eyes taking in the fading horizon
The wind whipping through you hair
Those days were numbered, we couldn't keep on
Living like we'd still be there
I would have run with you forever
Hold your searching gaze and see
That the entire world had failed you
And what you were waiting for was me...
