There...

by Bryan Berry   Aug 27, 2007


Consume me
in all that is your grace
envelop me
in the beauty of your face
why can't i
just turn my eyes away
and save myself
the pain this day

i never knew
what this all meant
and i wish that
this wasn't how it went
when will i
learn to just not care
then maybe
i'll stop being there

all these
all these words were meant for you
even though
no one thinks this is true
i can't just
fall away from this
when we
never even shared a kiss

i never knew
what this all meant
and i wish that
this wasn't how it went
when will i
learn to just not care
then maybe
i'll stop being there

i know that i wasn't always there
but you know that i really did care
though all of this is meaningless now
i followed through with my vow

through steel and glass you broke through
something few others could ever do
but all of these words are in vain
i ask that you just ease all this pain
