"Good Morning," she said to me as I walked through the door.
|
(must have been quarter to nine...)
|
But I didn't mind, or bother the time
|
because at the time I was pulled into her eyes-are deep,
|
in bloom with the sea,
|
and I'm helpless in my hopelessness.
|
So I sit and stare, imagined this minute without you there.
|
How meaningless it would be.
|
I close my eyes from reality,
|
and begin to see a new life for the first time.
|
For the first time, my thoughts are deep,
|
in bloom with the sea,
|
and I'm helpless in my hopelessness.
|
Losing strength.
|
Finding blood that runs thicker than the first time.
|
Who's to blame,
|
they point their fingers above.
|
Anyone but me, anywhere but here.
|
So this charade is over,
|
your noble eyes are weary,
|
and this burden you gave is overwhelming.
|
Maybe I'll move out west,
|
where the tears are fresh and the eyes are cold.
|
And in it's shelter my heart won't welter and I can be alone.
