You say you don't sleep
you say you won't eat
you say many more things
that bring tears to my eyes.
I see you sliiping away
silent and fast
and I don't even know
who you are any more
or how long you'll last
But that's not what concerns me
It's that I can't seem to reach you
Far off
in your distant world
To give you advice
to help you see clear
that you are still here
that you can still live
You've already accepted
your impossible fate
I'm affraid I'm too late
to make a difference here
So I let you go
I watch as you die
Darling spread your white wings
and fly my friend
Fly.
