Closure

lyrics

This Case isn’t closed, these wounds aren’t healed,
These bombs have all burst, the damage was dealt, but I can still feel.
This love never took, the form of a hole,
That had to be filled by the voice of your soul, but I can still hear.
This problem remains, and all that it took,
I could tell you were troubled by me from one look because I can still see.
And I can still speak. I’ve tried to before,
But you turned away like that problem’s no more, but I am still here

Something’s missing.
There’s no relief, there’s no closure. Just a stagnancy that feels like a torture.

If this is the after, some long, grueling chapter,
Some infinite wristwatch that’s not ticking faster, but I can tell time.
A time when love could be abundant and present,
Inaudible memories that fail to be resonant but I can still speak
I told you again, “This ground undulates
When it should be flat.” You think I’m too late, but I can still think
And I can still know it won’t get much better,
To think that I’m strong, that I’ve faced down my debtor, but I am still weak.

Something’s missing.
There’s no relief, there’s no closure. Just a stagnancy that feels like a torture.

This case isn’t Closed, these wounds I should tend.
This chapter should close, this story should end, but I can still start
