I see a ghost in a photograph I feel that wave come up under me I see myself in that other half I feel that pain pull me underneath I see the times that we'll never have I hear the sighs of content we'd breathe I feel the smile that I wish I had But all these moments are projections of the past Cuz a part of me died and a liveliness was lost when you passed And a light in me dimmed as a certainty was slipping through my grasp Now I'm picking up the pieces getting cut open by shards of broken glass Well how long can this last Missing is that purpose in my life but I can get it back This isn't gone I can get it back I see no soul in the mirror Only see signs of demise getting nearer "Time heals wounds" is absurd as a theorem But I can see above the sky's getting clearer And though despair of things before will never leave Although our past mistakes can never be retrieved Way out in the distance is a vessel on the seas And I'm a set a heading toward the sun, cuz I believe that I can get it back All that hope and that joy That trust and that care Those dreams of a boy, I can get it back All that love and that worth That touch of a flare That feel of the earth, I can get it back That drive to extreme That confidence to lead That willingness to bleed, I will get it back Reassembled when I'm done Depression on the run as I come beating on these drums This isn't gone I can get it back Battles with the mind and the timid stand off Slightest bit of pain and those tender folk scoff Choose the destination but that bridge must be crossed Guess the bottom line is we're cut from different cloths Borders they divide but I'm inclined to cut across Reach the outer limits then I cut away my loss Continue toward the goal in sight no matter what the cost Emboldened by this chance, I'm not afraid to get lost Cuz now I'm pushing forward and nobody dare oppose Now I'm moving faster while that ticking clock slows And now I'm climbing higher like the ground can't hold So I don't plan on stopping when this summit plateaus I'm that invasion of the body by the soul Sickened from the cold but soon a certified whole Never one to fight but I just hit it on the nose It took my spirit, but I got it back, case closed
