...and when the ocean washed me up onto you shore, was I then
Saved?
Oh, loveable liar
You whispered tales to me at night, but how come you never gave
Them voice?
Staring into enticing darkness, you chose to close your eyes
I could never have predicted this loss of self and time
And I am crushed against your stone
(Under the silence, the grinding silence)
...and yes, time will float by, but never will it heal a
Single wound
You cannot remake this
You grind me to dust with your pain
Now, will you let me have mine?
And you, still standing there, swept in your moth-eaten pride:
I never wanted this to be
I never wanted this
And I am crushed against your stone
(Under the silence, the grinding silence)
