Give us life again...

I am outside and

I've been waiting for the sun

with my wide eyes.

I've seen worlds that don't belong.

My mouth is dry

with words i cannot verbalize.

Tell me why

we live like this?

*

Tell me where our time went

And if it was time well spent.

Just don't let me fall asleep

Feeling empty again...

'Cause I fear I might break

And I fear I can't take it

Some night I'll lie awake

Feeling empty...

*

If you wanna play it like a game,

Well, come on, come on, let's play!

'Cause I'd rather waste my life pretending

Then have to forget you for one whole minute.

*

You're what keeps me believing

the world's not long dead,

strength in my bones

put the words in my head

when they pour out to paper -

it's all for you

cuz that's what you do.

*

Keep me safe inside,

your arms like towers

tower over me.
