Tremble

by brie kelly wise   May 3, 2008


Don't whisper goodbye, there's never an end tonight
Trembling corners lost somewhere inside
All those small wishes leave reluctantly to the sky
And I'm here laughing, saying to myself 'don't cry.'

But here in the darkness, there's voices that linger
They tell me to run and then point their finger
I'm tired of trying, tired of hoping I don't see her
And there she lies while I watch the voices feel her

They know she's real and they know she's dying
With fires burning, the ashes are flying
And trouble may come as long as you keep crying
Tonight I'm pretending that I'm up and flying

Broken wings don't get me very far
But sometimes I pretend I get help from the stars
They don't feel pressure for they're pushed away by my scars
Truthfully I'm tired of being all that we are

Pain on my fingertips lie beneath my legs
I get on my knees and try my best to beg
For one night of sleep, one night to pray
When everything I lost has nothing to say
