Moment


Wait, still alive, it’s beating

Move, its racing, its beating

Over, finished, no more beating

WHY?


I lie in the darkness
with no hope or light
The pain that blinds me
tells me I still have to fight
You find my pieces every time
and glue them together
You hold every bit every fragment
emanating the strength I need

Why do you stay?
Like I'm the one who matters.
Why do you pray?
When everything has shattered.

I'm broken and I bleed
I have nothing to offer
Things have been shifting
and it feels wrong, too wrong
Still I see you
on your knees beside me
Envelope me in your grace
you never let me fade

Why do you stay?
Like I'm the one that matters.
Why do you pray?
When everything has shattered?

S E N S E S

I taste you, I taste the acid that bleeds from your veins.
I see you, I see the ripple of a past I want to forget.
I hear you, I hear every truth disguised in lies.
I smell you, I smell the scent of betrayal.
I feel you, I feel the love that you've lost forever.

DON'T LOOK UPTO ME NOW
I WON'T MELT WITH THE LOVE THEY SHOW
IT WAS A WHIRLWIND ROMANCE BABY
IT AIN'T GONNA KEEP ME DOWN

YOU'RE ALL SENTIMENTAL DARLING
LOVE POEMS, FLOWERS AND A RING
IT WAS A WHIRLWIND ROMANCE BABY
IT CAN'T HOLD ME BACK FROM FLYING

I'M SORRY LOVE, BUT IT WASN'T LOVE
YOU FELL HARD WITH JUST A LITTLE SHOVE
IT WAS A WHIRLWIND ROMANCE BABY
NO DEPTH IN IT COULD KEEP ME AT BAY

YOUR HEART IS BREAKING, I CAN SEE
I GAVE YOU THE OPTION TO FLEE
IT WAS A WHIRLWIND ROMANCE BABY
WHY'D YOU LOSE YOURSELF HERE?

I DON'T STAY IN ONE PLACE OR AROUND
I CAN'T BE TETHERED TO THE GROUND
IT WAS A WHIRLWIND ROMANCE BABY
I'VE FOUND A NEW DIRECTION AND I'M READY TO FLY
