Barren In This Light

Love is always easy,
But we have to make it hard,

Crying's always easy,
We refuse to hold the bar tight enough,
To learn how to let it go,

I've lived this life enough,
But I'm too young to care,
I'm just too nervous,
To lay my eyes on you,

You are my past,
That's all I have to hear,
Cuz you have blown away,
And I can't touch you,

See this flower?
The petals are aflame,
But I can still hold it,
These dreams will come true one day,

I won't ask to hold your hand,
In your ghostly sorrow,
Just take a walk with me,

This is where it happened,
That one night of ruin,
The one you hear about,
It happened to me again,

And again...

See here is where we started,
Happy in our lonliness for the first time,
You held out your hand for me,
But it wasn't mine to hold,
The scars were there for show,

I know that now,

Don't drink this water,
It's clear to your eyes,
But deep within it's rotten,
With the flesh of what was made,

It was all in our dreams,
The meat of what we left behind too long,

Green glowing skin,
Is that a tear on your face?

Love is blind,
Love is death,
Love is the Blood and the Flesh,

Sew you back together,
Can you still talk to me?

All I need is one word,

I can see the evil in your heart,

Just burn it down today,

Look at my face,
I'm not disappointed,
I'm not angry with you,
Look into my eyes,
I'll always love you,

Love always finds it's way,
In shapes and words,

Crying's always okay,
We heal ourselves anyway.
