my cry for a fistful of sand,
breeds silence.
hold me, i'm folding, i can't see land.
the world just blinks.
lead me, i'm stupid from the lesson learned.
you've learned nothing.
you told me to get lost to find myself.
first it bleeds then it scabs,
i feel like a haemophiliac.
would i change if you carried me back?
yes, i would,
believe me now,
yes, i would.
i can't sink now,
yes, i would.
what if i am never thrown that rope?
what if this tear in my side just pours and pours and pours.
i wonder if they've noticed i'm not around?
the loss of a lonely man never makes much of a sound.
first it bleeds then it scabs,
i feel like a haemophiliac.
would i change if you carried me back?
yes, i would,
believe me now,
yes, i would.
i can't sink now,
yes, i would.
