You can do with your hands
What you  do with your heart
Kiss me until my lips turn blue
And my souls apart
Shaking my fists into the sky trying to breathe without you
Screaming if you only knew the strings that tie
Close to the ground
Leaping bounds as I drown
As I try and speak there is no sound
This use to be a place I called home
Now I try and push it all away
Screaming for salvation and something sound
I often wonder what happened to our wings ?
We flew so high
We flew so close
Now I have to watch you as we fall
I take it apart one piece at a time
Hold  it my hand examine it so
Just trying to find something worthwhile
I wrap it around my brain and unravel as often as I can
With each solitary fragment  
That I find within
Trying to find comfort that will feel like my favorite song
I often question where we went wrong
Iā€™m stuffing this sorrow deep in me
Sewing up my insides so I will not need
