Don't you get it?
I did all I could.
Everything in my weakening power - just so all is understood.
Now the feeling is less than weak,
...

Your influence on me
is like a plague.
Vague but spread.
It hides - in a sense.
...

Going around in circles,
beneath my eyes are bluish black,
there's nothing new,
no one I wanna talk to.
...

Like frail little dew drops,
they cover the ground.
Their colors swirl and mix.
Almost like a living rainbow,
...

Tell me what I'm hiding from you.
Because I think I'd like to know.
That's the problem with you these days -
Assumption under your belt -
...

I think I want to get away.
I think I'd love to stay.

But I can't open my mouth,
...

An array of questions.
You ask me to speak.
To tell the truth -
inside of to weep.
...

i never figured to be here.
to sit and stare at nothing at all.
but bringing my soul here so no forceful act.
remind yourself of this everyday.
...

you're breathing deep -
it's time to sleep.
to tell your secrets that make you weep.
you flourish in the light
...

he speaks to me like there's nothing new.
but it's all lies.
riley soldier, tell me your worries.
tell me the images that you see, tell me the feelings that are left to bleed.
...
