You talk so lightly Like fresh air in fog, You were my vision Through absolute blindness. You were the world That revolved around me, You made me fill in gaps That were missing inside. You made me feel Like nothing mattered, When you had me, If you'll have me. But you made me crash In the fog that I tried wandering, You made the world crumble and fall Beneath and above these walls. You made me feel Like nothing mattered, But nothing did matter Anymore when you left. I'm still shaking and crawling These walls that disappear Around my feet and heart, As I look below I see emptiness. As I fall into a never ending drop Of uncertainty I look back up But hold my arms towards you So you can catch me as I go. But you only caught the fingertips, Of my love.

You talk so lightly Like fresh air in fog, You were my vision Through absolute blindness. You were the world That revolved around me, You made me fill in gaps That were missing inside. You made me feel Like nothing mattered, When you had me, If you'll have me. But you made me crash In the fog that I tried wandering, You made the world crumble and fall Beneath and above these walls. You made me feel Like nothing mattered, But nothing did matter Anymore when you left. I'm still shaking and crawling These walls that disappear Around my feet and heart, As I look below I see emptiness. As I fall into a never ending drop Of uncertainty I look back up But hold my arms towards you So you can catch me as I go. But you only caught the fingertips, Of my love.
