years and years
days and days
lonely empty loss
longing
apart afraid
speak to me
cut through this terrible empty silence
you remember i know you do
if you feed the desire it just grows
one month
two weeks
days and weeks
and years and years
well then
up to this moment i was something
else
someone else
turn the clock over,
tick on,
tick tock
tickity tock
and there you go,
more flashes,
new change new life
deal with it be strong
braver
except maybe i'm half-asleep
and dreaming of the highest stars
dreaming of what might've been
love and love
and pretty words
underscored by some pain and loss
well yes,
that's how the story goes,
that's how this song goes now,
turning around and crashing down
what it just built up
mirror mirror
tell me
who am i
these walls
imaginary, real
seem to press down
on those tired shoulders
you and rest and you can pause
stop
but you can't ever find a place
to rest your head now
and be safe from what's inside
accept and love it
if you can
play your song from your heart, if you dare
do you dare?
a thousand things you might've done
things right
things wrong
erase it all,
here and gone,
then and now
swirling swirling
breathe
gasping for air
recover now
