I did not die, I did not go
I did not leave you on your own
Rejoice, my dear, for here I am
To live, to breathe, to stay

I am still here, I still do breathe
I will not force you to your knees
I will not make you scream and crawl
But I will smile as you fall

All so new and all so lost
All adrift in ancient seas
All washed ashore on distant lands
All murderous insane

Please drop her gently from the sky
Please let her tumble from a bridge
Please let her fly into my arms
Please let her come home

Fools, fools, all such fools
But only I reside here
Fools, fools, all such fools
Oh what a fool am I

Please sit by and allow me to explain
For I am still adjusting
And regretting all that I have done
I didn't think I could feel like this again

Stab me not with blunt daggers
Lash me not with silk strands
Whisper not into my ear
Take not my bloodied hand

Will you stay in our story of pictures?
Of bright colours and dark shades of grey?
You won't find shelter from the rain, perhaps
But I will shield you from the storm

The will of him is lost forever
His body has decayed
His ashes fly with the wind
And over us he no longer drifts

I watched the beetles eat your mind
I watched the dust motes fall
I watched your fragile fingers twitch
I watched you through it all

How does one make up for lost time?
How do I make amends?
How do I write down all the lines?
How do I regain friends?

Oh great pride with mask of black, don't smile so
Oh sweet doe with pelt of gold, you shouldn't know
Oh cold one with eyes of mine, you shine far too brightly
Almost unfair, in your beauty

A silk ribbon, a special silk ribbon
That's what she tells me
I do not know why
But I don't like it much

I hear a whisper of hope and truth
But the clouds soon cover the sky
I will lose all faith and let myself fall
And in doing so, I will ruin everything we are
