One of my most personal songs.
Just one guy who's out to influence the world with his own brand of song.
Lyrics
Oh mother, silence is the only thing I can give.
What good am I if everyone is meant to forget?
I stand here, guilty as the blood dripping from my hands.
My only instrument was her perfect silhouette.
I have another chance to drag out the trunk again.
Before it comes to life and wonders where I've been.
And tells me stories from the afterlife as she weeps.
Until I have the luck to summon her back to sleep.
I'll pray for you tonight.
(As you, you gasp for air.)
While keeping her love next to mine.
(I'm sure that you won't mind.)
Oh, lover, look me in my eyes and tell me you're here.
I won't believe you, but you'll make this heart easier to steer.
I can't sleep while I know that you're above me, dreaming of me.
We've danced around it but, at last, we'll dance together tonight.
I'll pray for you tonight.
(As you, you gasp for air.)
While keeping her love next to mine.
(I'm sure that you won't mind.)
Trust me, I won't be alone.
But you'll sit there, atop your throne.
Made of pity and regret.
Don't tell me you're sorry yet.
