You're like a moon that's full,
Across a sea of foam
I'm the sky you've been burning
I don't think you even understand
I thought I held you by the hand
I thought I held you
I'm like a songwriter,
You're the reason I've run out,
Run out of metaphors
I don't think you even understand
I thought I held you by the hand
I thought I held you
I thought I held you
Across a sea of foam
I'm the sky you've been burning
I don't think you even understand
I thought I held you by the hand
I thought I held you
I'm like a songwriter,
You're the reason I've run out,
Run out of metaphors
I don't think you even understand
I thought I held you by the hand
I thought I held you
I thought I held you

"I don't even think you understand
I thought i held you by the hand,"
she's acting cold and distant and is oblivious to why he would feel so hurt, and a big part of why he is so hurt by her leaving him is the fact that he believed she was in his life for good, that they were going to be together for a long time...they probably were very close, and she gave no hints to the fact she was going to disappear. afterwards, she can't even open her eyes enough to see her actions have destroyed him.
