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
