Because its his pain
And I’m sure it burns like fire
But I’m too far
So for me it just shines like the sun
But he doesn’t even want me to see it
Because he thinks its something ugly
He doesn’t realize whatever glow illuminates trembling skin
Can’t mask the soul I’m drawn to.
Because its his pain
I cannot describe it.
I’m too far away so its like the silence
Born of a void residing in something
Too powerful to allow it.
And I think we’re all fragile
But you never had to see others fall
Just to know they wouldn’t
Fall into you.
And I wanted to silence everyone
Just so they couldn’t speak against me.
But you gave me a voice
So now I can speak for me
So I don’t really care what they say.
You’re trying to hold yourself together
And you gave me the only hope I have
So I am going to hold onto you just like that.
