Tiny drops of wisdom burn like acid rain
While quivering eyes seethe with regret.
Whispered lullabies bring casual pain
Lying motionless, wishing to forget -
For this burden here is heavy.
I know this secret that is burning,
Burning deep within my heart,
Knowing that the tides are turning,
I've been lost before my lips could start -
For the end is all I can trust.
The story is so simple in the end,
For I know the curtains fall upon my head,
But within that mind of yours, my friend,
It's hard to read that far ahead -
For I always skip the pages.
I hope to find the courage to dance up with the stars,
So I could be the glimmer, deep within your eyes,
But today I stare, at that empty frame of ours,
And lament upon my sorrows, my sweet demise -
For this love is lost in time.
