That night I looked at the stars
Counting every shard of glass...

Downing in despair
the feelings so unfair...

I whispered words into in your ear
Even though there's no one else to listen...

Wake up with the blinds pulled shut
Sit up, rub my eyes open...

The explosions started around noon
we were all on our lunch brake...

Bombs are exploding in fragments of glass
Piercing everything in sight...

Picked up the phone
To call you again...

Born to catch lightning
in the palms of her hands...

You
You are so close...

The rain on my shoulders
The bottle of water in my hand...

To express my love
Would be a foolish attempt...

East burns the sky with a blazing orange sun
Morning births the life into the wild red...
