An offering of reasons
We put them all away
A covering of treasons
That one by one we let slip away
A solitary dancer
So lost upon her stage
I have seen you on the edge of dawn
Felt you there before you were born
Balanced your dreams upon the edge of thorns
But I don't think about you anymore
A study made of winter
Of summers long ago
And dreams that use to glitter
Safely now hidden under snow
And so we end this chapter
And let the stage lights fade
I have seen you on the edge of dawn
Felt you there before you were born
Balanced your dreams upon the edge of thorns
But I don't think about you anymore
If this life is like a movie,
Then you're right,
I know everything.
So hold out for the end title.
But I won't wait.
I won't wait for you.
You want me to believe in nothing.
You're hearing me out again.
Again I say it's time to move on.
Save yourself the hurt and shame of saying goodbye and hearing no reply.
I do what you say; you ask of me.
But no one has to see us.
You want me to believe in nothing.
