I am a bird afraid of heights, I am afraid of everything |
|
And for the first time in my life, I can't be alone |
|
Through seasons you learn to weather |
|
Small pewter statues as reminders |
|
Of who we should have been |
|
Cold and stoic we will stand |
|
To face our trials and fail |
|
Oh the pain of constantly wishing to be someone, anyone else |
|
You were lost at sea, but a stones throw away and the shore told me not to remember |
|
I've cut my sails |
|
I am here, you are here, there is a haunting here |
|
What would it take |
|
To forget about this |
|
Don't ask if you can't accept, narrow or broad, just don't ask |
|
I could never accuse you of this fantastic pursuit |
|
Through fields and woods |
|
We must tread softly |
|
My breath, my flesh, my unicorn |
|
Always slipping through my fingers |
|
I'll accept this chase |
|
As the closest this tired body |
|
Will ever get to what it is that people get to |
|
Take your pictures, take your pictures, plant your seeds |
|
But you will never explain a color in words |
|
I let happen what would and lost my catch that moment |
|
Had to stay out of sight, I've cut my ties |
