A loss

You're so good at building blocks,

so nobody can get through to you

When I said I loved you

You thought it was a myth

You thought it was a rumour

Forever I wanted your kiss

I wanted a future

You're my Roman Empire

You're what I think of every day

You're where I hide when I don't feel safe

Right now I'm suffering a loss

A loss that will never seem to penetrate

You're so good at finding what is lost

Told you I felt saved by you

Wanna still tell you I love you

I'm sure I will at the end of this

Never was a rumour

Still craving your kiss

I still want a future

You're my Roman Empire

You're what I think of every day

You're where I hide when I don't feel safe

Right now I'm suffering a loss

A loss that will never seem to penetrate
