She cries She cries glorious drops of sweetest honey Tears that melt away the obdurance that has become my heart It's a world we know Where man grows cold Skin a minefield Love a faded tombstone covered in vines Soul a name that can't be read etched upon a stone Decaying bones Frozen wilds And her warmth She cries She cries a boat on a mythic river Excretions from some north September skies Her salt a raindrop On my barren dusty life She cries the ocean from her eyes And in her face I'm drowning Dying for a taste She cries And it reminds me In a stark and ugly world that made me numb There is still something Worth feeling She cries She cries ink down her cheek leaving a tattoo of my name And giving me hope She cries But I will be the one to dry her eyes

she cries
She cries She cries glorious drops of sweetest honey Tears that melt away the obdurance that has become my heart It's a world we know Where man grows cold Skin a minefield Love a faded tombstone covered in vines Soul a name that can't be read etched upon a stone Decaying bones Frozen wilds And her warmth She cries She cries a boat on a mythic river Excretions from some north September skies Her salt a raindrop On my barren dusty life She cries the ocean from her eyes And in her face I'm drowning Dying for a taste She cries And it reminds me In a stark and ugly world that made me numb There is still something Worth feeling She cries She cries ink down her cheek leaving a tattoo of my name And giving me hope She cries But I will be the one to dry her eyes
