My tongue is tied by twisted words
That long to fly like calling birds
Oh, Love
The things I dream of
Let's rage against the setting sun
Remember when these wars were fun
To fight?
Just us against the fading light
I've carried them for all these days
My beating heart
My selfish ways
My Dear
Do we become the things we fear?
I've walked on glass
And slept on nails
Built signal fires
And covered trails
My Dear
Do we become the things we fear
The most?
Step by step
And piece by piece
I've said my pleas for sweet release
This time
Coaxing absolution out of rhyme
It shows in shadows
As they form
We swim but never beat the storm
To shore
To tell the lies we're living for
I've carried them for all these days
My beating heart
My selfish ways
My Dear
Do we become the things we fear?
I've walked on glass
And slept on nails
Built signal fires
And covered trails
My Dear
Do we become the things we fear
The most?
