between sunrise and twilight

are you near or far
between sunrise and twilight
police sirens blasting
sobbing mourners nearby

did i hear right
is it true
that you are not here
how quickly you passed by

how could you leave her behind
how could you leave without a good-bye
i cry for her
i cry for me

what's it like to live
what's it like to be left behind
how did i die
and survive
