Blind
3.22.04

I’m shaking now
Tired and empty
I’ve got to cut the threads loose
The threads that link my ailing heart to you
But it’s so easy to muse, so hard to lose
Even if I’m ready

So hold my hand one last time
Until the ache fades to numbness

Open your eyes
The truth’s danced in your reach all along
I couldn’t see it until now
But you always knew it was there
Open your eyes
You leave me dark inside
You leave me blind, you leave me blind

I’m scraping now
Ripping at this cage that keeps me held so within
Within moments you’ll try to bleed me once again
But I’m prepared this time
And eventually scars blend over the wounds
Even so, they’ll always be there

So hold my hand one last time
Until the ache fades to numbness

Open your eyes
The truth’s danced in your reach all along
I couldn’t see it until now
But you always knew it was there
Open your eyes
You leave me dark inside
You leave me blind, you leave me blind

<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
<---<--- catch me as i fall? [AA]
