If I stay, would I watch our dreams fall away
Whilst the seams connecting us fray
The timing of your breath, whispers goodbye
Your tears, they form waves in my mind
As the years pass by I wouldn’t fight
The beating of my heart, it just don’t start
So move me, like sand in the hour glass
So teach me, how to be at home in this skin I belong
Don’t let me, fall between the cracks that I ignore
I’ve been your fool before
Waiting still, are lessons to help cure all my ills
Yet taste of sentiment is too real
Reminds me of those thoughts, I’d since forgot
With my last touch, all those moments I tried to judge
Dissipate with the fear and mistrust
I know you’re still there, somewhere…
So move me, like sand in the hour glass
So teach me, how to be at home in this skin I belong
Don’t let me, fall between the cracks that I ignore
I’ve been your fool before
