We could meet but it ain't easy to fool me when I'm grounded by this fear
We could speak but it ain't easy to understand me when I'm moved by this anger
we could share but it ain't easy the seeds in my hands as memories from the past
sometimes I breathe at night and I dream of the dying lights dancing like stones in the sky branding monochrome scars with their fire abiding the silent wake in a grief I will never forget fallen stars giving birth in my heart to a new life
We could join but it ain't easy to reach me when I'm buried in the ground
We could melt but it ain't easy to touch me curled up in my shell
I thought this was my way I put a smile on my face
so that you believed I was just a spectral friend of yours
then shame cut off our souls like the blades of a thousand words cutting loose the red threads once again like broken pages out of our love
sometimes I breathe at night and I dream of the dying lights dancing like stones in the sky branding monochrome scars with their fire abiding the silent wake in a grief I will never forget fallen stars giving birth in my heart to a new life
