Words

[fahye]

Never give away the words you live by
It reveals too much of yourself
Never paint without a vision
And never tell me to let go

Wait until the lights go dim
The brightness hurts my eyes
Give me another chance to say
The nothing that was always there

Keep my heart in a silver box
But give me back the key
Laughter hides too much this time
For my reality to match yours

Wait until the music fades
You hear more in a silence
Let me drift in fragile peace
And listen to more than you say

Don’t use words that you don’t need
They’ll only make it sharper
Cut it deeper that it should be
And I don’t need a scar from you

Wait until we’re alone again
For this, the very last time
Give me this last promise
And one last memory of you

Always keep the dark from me
Make a glass rainbow out of hate
Let it shatter on the floor
And let me see the light it brings

Wait until the first star comes
Knock me down for being romantic
But let me see it now with you
Let me hold this dream once more

Lift your head and lift my soul
Gentle fingers push me higher
Open my eyes to an ordinary world
Make me stronger than I was

Wait until the last dance
For every ending is a beginning
Hold my hand until then
And don’t say a word
