Just this time I ask please do it slowly Don't leave this cardboard here in my soul Remember I'm the meek and the lowly Don't leave it crumbling here in my soul Oh Listen it's gone Oh Listen it's gone Just this time I ask please speak it softly Don't wake the ghosts here in my soul For now I hear the coming of silence As white and stark as my fragile soul Oh Listen it's gone Oh Listen it's gone Oh Listen it's gone Oh Listen it's gone Just for now I ask drop it forever Don't leave it wandering here in my soul Remember I'm the meek and the lowly Don't leave this cardboard here in my soul
