breathing in a secret place
longing for a holy space
searching for that dreamer
hoping to believe in faith
you say
how long have we been quiet
how long have will you stay silent
how long until i see you face
returning in your loving riot
the lamp light is quickly fading
the clock says you're unveiling
holding your hand in guilt
grating my teeth when i hear you say
take my breath away
take my breath away
take my breath away
take my breath away

what did i say
i say she bleeds roses
she wears and breathes and hears music
but she can't feel it
moving on
i could name her peace
fenced in and climbing out
broken down with difficult questions
because i don't know the words
moving on
she drops her head
she drops her hands down to my waist
her eyes hurt brown
her hair runs red
wish i could be here for this
i could name her tragedy
living a few weeks later
and not let go of her hand
i wish she had been called joy
she stepped out the window
but she didn't fall
she faced me
she paces me
i can feel her breathe
moving on
moving on
moving on

you asked me to write this
something for when you die
i'm tasting my blood now
lord, not tonight
is this what you wanted
is this what you meant
did you plan it this way
was it your choice
and i believed you'd never leave
how naive of me and my mind
was set on you
i couldn't help it and i let it grow
until it captured me
and now i can't breathe
i hope you had some warning
you could prepare your last thought
what you could leave me with
but never tell me
and i believed you'd never leave
how naive of me and my mind
was set on you
i couldn't help it and i let it grow
until it captured me
and now i can't breathe
this is my attempt to hear you
let you speak through my words
i could never speak for you
but i always understood
hearing these last words
i can watch you fall
i can stand beside you now
but i don't know where you are
and i believed you'd never leave
how naive of me and my mind
was set on you
i couldn't help it and i let it grow
until it captured me
and now i can't breathe
