I will wish into the night
Beyond everything I have ever known

The coldness in my hands is a familiar one
And my breath fogs the air as I call out my plight among the heavens
Oh that they would rain and wash everything away
Pain is my companion and weakness my neighbor
Still I spin in fields of flowers

I told you once in earnestness that I just want you to be happy
As I had told myself a hundred times before
Still it seems cruel to me that you would live your happiness at the expense of my own
This is a two way street and we no longer walk in the same direction
I have left tears in my footprints and drops of blood in my wake
Still I journey on
For though I walk alone
Beneath the angels watching over me
A memory clutched in each hand and others biting at my heels
I still have these legs to stand up
And the sun will shine again upon the lips you used to kiss
