|
Of all the stories that have ever been written |
|
I've been assailed, right off the page |
|
Winter fell across the floor in silence |
|
I just stopped and wondered why |
|
Well it's a cold and strange sad situation |
|
Off the shores, tossed by by the waves |
|
My every other word misunderstood why |
|
I'd ever speak out loud again |
|
Clinging on so tight |
|
I bled my hands |
|
I draw the shades |
|
And hang my head and run |
|
All the simple things |
|
Essential to me |
|
You cast aside |
|
To go and be alone |
|
You can't see the way I grieve |
|
Love's the air I need to breathe |
|
I hope you understand |
|
Just need to find myself again |
|
I see no choice but leaving |
|
So tired of flying alone |
|
On the battlefield |
|
You were never there beside me |
|
Who will I be if I recover from this |
|
I'm not the enemy |
|
There's so much good inside me |
|
The real you left and never came back home |
|
Round and round, oh |
|
There is a rhythm where |
|
Two hearts should meet |
|
A sense of comfort and |
|
A point of common ground |
|
To have and then to hold and then to cry |
|
And then to break upon the waves |
|
You see me through dark eyes |
|
That color me wrong |
|
Immersed inside the world |
|
Where charity dies |
|
And what of all that talk of |
|
How two become one and |
|
I hope you understand |
|
Just need to find some grace again |
|
There seems to be no reason |
|
Rejected off and away |
|
On the battlefield |
|
You were never there beside me |
|
Who will I be should I recover from this |
|
There are no enemies |
|
Just death of love inside me |
|
The bitter truth of this has come back home |
