Days Away
August Ends Lyrics

Looking in my mirror
Reflecting on myself and my life

Seeing shattered pieces of myself
Recognizing my flaws and mistakes

Remembering the day in which I fell
Recalling a moment of personal failure

Holding my hands closer
Seeking comfort and protection

Watching colors change from blue to red
Feeling overwhelming emotions such as sadness and anger

Suffocating never felt so good
Finding comfort in pain and depression

and once again I can't find you
Missing someone who is no longer in my life

I'm standing here by my lonesome
Feeling alone and isolated

I'm keeping clear
Avoiding things that bring back painful memories

I'm falling deeper and deeper
Succumbing to negative thoughts and emotions

The sun will rise another day
Life goes on despite my personal struggles

with or without you
Whether you're in my life or not

And I don't need you in my life,
Acknowledging that I can survive without someone

but I want you
Admitting that I still have feelings for someone

And days will come when we're days away
Anticipating times when distance will separate us

and I will miss you
Knowing that I will feel the absence of someone

Those nights I'll stay up real late
Worrying and thinking about someone

and wonder if you're missin me to,
Questioning if someone else is thinking about me too

like I'm missin you
Expressing my loneliness and longing for someone

And now while I calm down
Trying to regain composure and clarity of mind

Trying to listen to these bitter chords
Listening to music that reflects my emotions

However far away are you and me
Acknowledging the distance between two people

I'm asking my real self now
Searching for self-understanding and self-acceptance

All this stuff I put on everyday
Hiding my pain and insecurity behind a facade

covering the scars you left on me
Trying to conceal emotional damage caused by someone

And I'm missin you
Reiterating my feelings of loneliness and longing for someone
