i've wrapped myself up

in a universe again

and let the darkness quell

my matchflame confidence

and unwillingly i hide

the lever i must find

to release the deep

the tears withheld inside

but i can't explain

i can't make sense of the

things i'm saying

the crystal tears

are sliding down again

your moonlit cheeks

and soaking silken lips

if this pain is so real

there's a hand that someday must heal

and give us the words

that time steals and won't let us say
