Empty words I have called into the shadows,
Looking for some vindication for my cries.
But those syllables return to haunt my moments
From time to time, as within the spell fire dies.
Now there's just you and me, just us.
All those words you would have said have gone.
Would you talk again and speak because
I fear I am going deaf, I fear I am alone...
So many words to breathe and not a single one coherent.
So many times to look back in deep regret.
I've mixed up my languages and made up my sin,
Sweet surrendering my soul, I wish to forget.
If it were just you and I, we'd watch the world
Go by in spurts and stops. How it stops.
The stars are brilliant diamonds, moon a pearl
Hung among those ticking moments, atop...
Every word I can't express is hidden in your eyes,
With each emotion stressed upon and hidden from me.
Could you give it up from those true blue depths,
Could you weave it strong like a pretty tapestry.
I'll ask until I weep for asking, heartless.
You'll not shed a tear when I am taken away
From the light into eternal darkness,
But I stay, so I know it's the other way...
Days have come and days have gone and stolen dreams,
Like a thief in the night, days came, I wish.
Memory clings onto me with talons an inch thick and long,
Sunken in, I close my eyes, turn face for your last kiss.
I am a dying person, wounded and open,
My heart has sores and my soul is tired.
I breathe, I'm empty, I'm hardly coping:
I wish I could just be scared...
Empty words trip away, to fall leaden upon uncaring air,
I tried to hold on to what I remember, solid and real.
You're wavering, you're vanishing, like sunshine rays.
Until the end of days, I'll speak now until I can feel.
It was me and you, all that I could do
Was watch you walk away. I'd say then
What I could not say, to you:
"I'm alone, and scared... again."
