[00:22.73]Eyes that meet to say farewell
[00:25.15]And linger through the sleepless nights
[00:27.47]
[00:27.97]A trail of days that end in tears
[00:31.77]
[00:34.34]But I can never be there
[00:37.33]
[00:39.79]The rush of hours that never seem to end
[00:44.35]
[00:45.23]What life has dealt, you cannot comprehend
[00:49.53]
[00:52.09]I am the absentee
[00:54.90]
[00:58.83]I know you're out there searching tonight
[01:04.26]
[01:04.96]I'm right here
[01:06.70]
[01:07.57]Another day and I cannot see through your eyes
[01:12.88]
[01:13.75]I'm right here
[01:15.56]
[01:20.49]How could I have known
[01:22.37]What preceded your own thoughts
[01:24.31]
[01:24.99]Wish that I could listen
[01:26.93]To what only speaks inside
[01:30.05]Every raging dissonance
[01:30.86]Each jarring note
[01:33.92]
[01:36.48]But I could never be there
[01:39.78]
[01:41.96]How can you think
[01:43.09]
[01:44.70]That I would understand
[01:46.96]When words just go around
[01:49.08]What the heart truly wants
[01:51.70]
[01:54.76]I am the absentee
[01:56.27]
[02:01.07]I know you're out there searching tonight
[02:06.37]
[02:07.05]I'm right here
[02:09.86]Another day and I cannot see through your eyes
[02:14.98]
[02:15.86]I'm right here
[02:18.79]
[02:27.83]I want to tell you
[02:30.02]
[02:31.84]Of the exploding light
[02:34.70]
[02:35.95]How everything is visible
[02:39.76]
[02:40.45]Moments before the dark
[02:44.44]
[03:08.18]I am never, never there
[03:15.79]
[03:23.31]I know you're out there searching tonight
[03:28.88]
[03:31.36]Another day and I'm not there
[03:36.86]
[03:42.85]Thrust with nails of conflict, anxiety and pain
[03:46.54]
[03:47.42]Through spells of anger, confusion and defeat
[03:50.91]
[03:51.84]I wish I'd see me here in front of you
[03:56.27]
[03:59.27]But I am not here
[04:01.97]
[04:07.03]I know you're out there searching tonight
[04:11.52]
[04:12.84]I'm right here
[04:15.59]Another day and I cannot see though your eyes
[04:20.08]
[04:24.20]I know you're out there
[04:27.76]
[04:29.94]But I'm right here
[04:32.44]
[04:33.06]Another day and I cannot see though your eyes
[04:37.86]
[04:39.43]Lead me right
[04:41.87]

Eyes that meet to say farewell
And linger through the sleepless nights
A trail of days that end in tears
But I can never be there
The rush of hours that never seem to end
What life has dealt, you cannot comprehend
I am the absentee
I know you're out there searching tonight
I'm right here
Another day and I cannot see through your eyes
I'm right here
How could I have known
What preceded your own thoughts
Wish that I could listen
To what only speaks inside
Every raging dissonance
Each jarring note
But I could never be there
How can you think
That I would understand
When words just go around
What the heart truly wants
I am the absentee
I know you're out there searching tonight
I'm right here
Another day and I cannot see through your eyes
I'm right here
I want to tell you
Of the exploding light
How everything is visible
Moments before the dark
I am never, never there
I know you're out there searching tonight
Another day and I'm not there
Thrust with nails of conflict, anxiety and pain
Through spells of anger, confusion and defeat
I wish I'd see me here in front of you
But I am not here
I know you're out there searching tonight
I'm right here
Another day and I cannot see though your eyes
I know you're out there
But I'm right here
Another day and I cannot see though your eyes
Lead me right
