D G D
I've been waiting, pacing along the halls ever since you left here

It could be warm you see, a statue next to me

Swimming away from the ice and snow

Could I have failed to see the signs in front of me

Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and simple I couldn't see

I couldnt see

If only time could slow down, maybe I could come up
