PLEASE DON'T PAY FOR THIS SONG! Enter ZERO dollars! (If I don't give the option to pay, then it won't show up in your collection.)

lyrics

standing in the back,
folded in the shadows,
we pray our eyes don't meet,
pray that we are blind now.

we were never meant to be

the pages of our lives
scatter like ashes.
they flutter out of sight,
and only then we try to catch them.

we were never meant to be,
and it doesn't matter now.
it doesn't even matter now.
