Let us die, Let us die Then dying we reply, oh dont you tell us about your suffering, now look in our eyes- look in our eyes. Let us be, Let us be Our closeness is such that where ever she rests her head in the softness underneath, She'll feel me and you'll feel me
Je leverai les yeux a toi- J'ai change cent foi de nom Je leverai les yeux a toi- Je n'ai pas d'espoir.
When you laugh you'll feel my breath there filling up your lungs. And when you cry those arent your tears but Im there falling down your cheek. And when you say you love him taste me, Im like poison on your tongue. But when your tired, if your quiet, you'll hear me singing you to sleep.
You were a song that I could sing you were a story I could tell I've only ever loved myself But I've loved myself so well. And how defeated I return! (you're nice and blue yes you're nice and blue) I missed what I was supposed to learn as all i learned about was missing you.
A life left half behind, though no longer blind I can't yet see. I'm not the boy that I once was, but I'm not the man I'll be. And I've been waiting now, for six years on (and have only just begun) For the day you'll hold her in your arms, oh risen Lord, my precious one.
I was once the wine, and you the wineglass. I was once alive, when you held me. God became the glass And all things left were emptiness Oh, my little girl, if you look out And see a trace of dark red that used To be my face, in the clarity of his grace: remember me
"As we melt let's make no noise Oh the profanation of our love To tell the world our passing joys! And we, besides, care less to miss Our eyes and lips and hands."
(But honey, I'm not who you think I am!)
"And so you'll be to me Who must obliquely run "Thy firmness makes my circle just, And makes me end where I begun" There's nothing wrong As I'll be somewhere singing all along."
We never met, you and I We were always inside, we were somewhere inside one another. And I'll live without you love, but what good is one glove, without the other?
Still, you only ask about my leaving, well but honey I had no choice, so I call and (when you hear that heavy breathing) for that sound of your voice.
But you sit there silent, folded arms And look down as I walk by My face has changed, you know it's me You know by the stillness in my eyes. Come and whisper in my ear, "You're very pretty, dear" and, and, "it'll be alright." You're lying! But I don't mind tonight.
So I wander and I wander Your absence beating inside my chest I try but I can't remember The color of your eyes, just the shape of your dress!
And through a garden overgrown... Oh, it's a long walk home! I said I'd not come back, well I'm coming back! (And you'd better be alone.)
Sit there silent, folded arms As you smile, as I walk by My face has shamed, but you know it's me, You know it's me! Come and whisper in my ear, my dear! My dear! It'll be alright. It'll be alright. It'll be alright. It'll be alright. It'll be alright. It'll be alright. It'll be al--No! No!
I said my goodbyes to the sun My little one, so far away. And how strange, how small we must become Yet as familiar as yesterday
The bluest iris that I'd ever seen She vanished like a dream, sinking back Into the ground Singing "maybe I wept real tears" But maybe she was hiding because she wanted to be found You wanted to be found!
Save my skin, I need a medic Hold me down, I'm only sewn down. Save my teeth, show me you meant it Catch my death, I'm only sewn together.
My eyelids are heavy, and the night's wearing on Your story's familiar, and your innocence is gone We'd burn like the morning then break like your heart Fall in love without warning just to fall back apart All fevered and blistered, with nothing at stake I feel the warmth of her whisper, and the cold of my mistakes Her soul in the balance, my heart in her hands I made her a widow, she made me a man.
You might sleep, but you'll never dream Onward! Progress! Or so it seems. You might laugh, but you'll never smile. Come on in and waste away awhile.
When dreams of rings of flowers fade and blur Giving way to that familiar ill come over and part your soft white curtains Where I'm waiting for you still
If you'd unlatch the window, If you'd let me lay there on your floor If you'd give me another chance, If you'd forget the pain I caused before
No use in saying how I'm sorry So I'm trying not to speak I'll sing in silence, lay beside you With my face there on your cheek
My stomach swears there's comfort there In the warmth of the blankets on your bed My stomach's always been a liar- I'll believe it's lies again.
Don't waste your lips on words I've heard before Kiss my tired head. And each letter written wastes your hand, young man Come and lead me to your bed You gave me hope that I'd not lost her And then thought it rather strange to see me smile- as I don't do too much smiling these days.
She put on happiness like a loose dress Over pain I'll never know "So the peace you had," she said, "I must confess, I'm glad to see it go." We're two white roses lying frozen just outside his door I've made you so happy and so sad, But which should I be more sorry for?
Come kiss my face goodbye, that space below my eye and above my cheek Cause I'm faint and fading fast, I see a darkness And I shall be released. I'll pass like a fever from this body, And softly slip into his hands I tried to love you and I failed, But I have another plan.
How long, My Lord, how long to sing this song? And my Lord, how much more of this pretending to be strong? When she stands before your throne Dressed in beauty not her own All soft and small, you'll hear her call, "You brought me here, now take me home."
