This song describes a Self that originated from a point in this continuum of reality that branched into another continuum of reality, wherein the Self in that reality leaves the addict and moves on to a new life. In this continuum however, having only the moment and nowhere else to go, the host Self could not leave and the history differs.
Lyrics:
You're the reason I've stayed so long
Now I'm thinking it's time to be gone
You want me; you need me; but you don't love me like I need
And its time this soul was freed
There is no reason that could encourage me to stay
All I see ahead is misery
I've waited too long for the day that you could say
You could truly give your heart to me
With no response, I head out on my way
You let it end there with no more to say
I had love; I lost love; an illusion slipping thru my hands
And it's more than I could stand
I'd chase this dream forever if I knew that it could bring
All the things I was looking for in you
Such a thing of beauty would surely make me sing
Cause I'd know you truly loved me too
With no regrets I head into the night
We both know the other is wrong and we're right
It's over; it's done now; and we've each taken our own way
And there's nothing left to say
I enter to a world so strange and new to me
The likes of which I know I've never seen
What's past is gone forever and there's so much more to be
I'm no longer trapped behind the screen
