Sometimes I need to put a table on my head And think back to childhood And cry all alone under a blanket The world is full of terrors Darkness knows no bounds I wish it would all go away But the tears feel so good to be alive So good to not feel nothing What had happened? When did everything fall away? Dont tell me my love isnt real. Sacred in my solitude Maybe you just dont know Havent learned how to feel this good Maybe I havent been able to hold onto     It Maybes thats where my dreams went But there is more than that So long I tried to run Because like nothing else love is scary and it hurts More than anything Heart           r    end            in              g So now here I am Alone again Wishing I held you There is this ache within me That longs to hold you again And its that which keeps me up all night Although I guess the coffee helps
