It's been days since we last talked
I wonder if you know that I'm trembling
It seems impossible to avoid staring at the clock
And sometimes the sky looks like it's crumbling
...
Wings tied
In the most horrible way, I can't describe
The truth that I'm supposed to accept
Tangles my heart up like a spider web
...
It's like seeing lightnings from the sky
It's like finding the reasons why
It's like all you ever wanted is to cry
It's like you're never given a chance to try
...
Look at those footprints
How they stand out on sand
Look at that glowing splint
How it looks so beautiful in your hand
...
When you're gone
I feel like I can't move on
How I was left on those steps
Pondering over this mishap
...
If only I could cry my heart out
Run to one corner and just shout
Where I could kneel down and grasp sand
Feel the earth in my bare hands
...
The intricate pattern of a rose
Shining brightly as it glows
Full, sensuous lips
As unique as a solar eclipse
...
I wonder who dares to come up close
And give me a beautiful rose
I know it's gross
But who knows?
...
Suddenly you're the protagonist
And I became an optimist
Playing your role
As rich as gold
...
