My tears cover you like a storm
Washing you with burden and guilt
They soak into your skin, your eyes are stones
So many times I scream into voids
My words are wolves rabid, needing to feed
Needing to bite
And they would chase you away for good

I can't seem to ring you out of me
Or the words you forgot you said
It all weighs down on my breaking heart
Your words meant nothing as I bled
If only I could pull the emotions right our of your eyes so I could read them like a novel
But they are not mine to keep
When change comes so quickly
It won't always set us free
So we will hold our breath and hold our hearts
Because there is a dark heaviness in these words that we speak
