|
The air was all dust, the night so untamed |
|
The ground opened up and swallowed all of the rain |
|
It swallowed you too into greatness unknown |
|
They sat down at dinner and waited for you to get home |
|
They set a place for you so don't believe everything that you read in that diary of yours |
|
And this nervousness isn't all your fault |
|
These shaky hands won't do what I want them to |
|
And I tried to guess what it is you thought |
|
About the lack of compassion that breathes through the holes in my skin |
|
What are you crying for? Just dust my heart and you will find no fingers printed there |
|
The untouched place that lies inside of every lonely boy tonight |
|
And this opened air has caused me to choke |
|
On your new found hope in me |
