Your Story

Red, flashing lights

The sirens arrive

You're hurt, but you don't cry

You ask me to stay by your side

My heart drops to the ground

My lips don't make a sound

(All of our tragedies)

Look in your eyes and

The weight of your world, it surrounds me

(Is this how it has to be?)

Sound of your voice as you whisper the words of your story

"See you in a while" I told her

It's over

Over

We move, we grow older

Before your words spill out

Take a breath, and say it again

Are you alright?

My heart drops to the ground

My lips don't make a sound

(All of our tragedies)

Look in your eyes and

The weight of your world, it surrounds me

(Is this how it has to be?)

Sound of your voice as you whisper the words of your story

"Just give it time" I told her

It's over

Over
