I can lie here for hours while you breathe indulging my doubts All the dreams that escape you come to me and burn themselves out I am hanging from shining threads that lead to the hands of the Fates They have dressed me in pale faced jealousy and left me to wait And in the morning, we won't remember why we're finessing a way of keeping each other down We'll stay up all night, it's force of habit and that's not how it oughta be... They say the night can fall too hard and you could lose yourself And when the light returns again you'll find you are someone else There are winged creatures who deal sleep to the bravest women They will dive and circle over me until I give in And if I could live this over, I'd change most everything I would never leave myself open to anyone again
