I've hardened my heart so long agao
Or so I thought
I had burried it all until that one moment
In a split second
My long used guard was shattered
And my finalized heart was skattered.
You kept me up at night
Understanding the war inside
That even my tears couldn't soften
Where my hand lay over your heart
Trying to match your beat to mine
To crisscross the calm.
We said good-bye but we couldn't
Look at eachother the same way
How hard it was to swallow the lump inside us
For the uncanny way things dribbled down
To the bottem of the bottle
The lime rotting hard and brown.
We've screamed ourselves to sleep in our heads
Why did we let the battle grow?
It was too late
The blood was already spilt
Growing pugnent...
Knowing that we had to let it go.
I've held your hand and you...
You held my head up when i couldn't function
Without some kind of instruction
We've let it go.
We tried to allow the glow
To suddenly fade as quickly as it grew
It was a baby of clay that day
It was a day we could not feel right
Unable to scream bloody murder
And in torment of the cold.
How could I have let her go so quickly?
She must be dieing without me...
I ...Ihave quenched this thirst for violence against myself
With a lovely flesh so soft and loving
That I could hardly remember to cry
We've had our days and this is real
A life where I slow to feel.
