In absentia

about

A kind of fairytale... Gretel & Gretel.

lyrics

In Absentia

It feels like forever since you silently withdrew.
When I stopped to look back, you’d covered up your tracks.
We were deep in the forest when your hand slipped out of mine.
Suddenly you were gone and never left a sign.

The time we spent together to get to here and now –
you’ve buried it, buried it, you’re hiding it away.
I’m losing track of what we had - and what do we have now?
You’ve hidden it, all of it - the where, the why, the how.

There’s part of me still yearning to connect with part of you
but I’m trying far too hard to find the hand I used to hold.
I’m reaching for the shadow of a ghost that I once knew,
but your trail is growing cold.
