My tongue is tied
By twisted words
That long to fly
Like calling birds
Oh Love
The things I dream of
Let's rage against
The setting sun
Remember when
These wars were fun
To fight
Just us against
The fading light
I've carried them
For all these days
My beating heart
My selfish ways
My Dear
Do we become the things
We fear
I've walked on glass
And slept on nails
Built signal fires
And covered trails
My Dear
Do we become the things
We fear
The most
Step by step
And piece by piece
I've said my pleas
For sweet release
This time
Coaxing absolution
Out of rhyme
It shows in shadows
As they form
We swim but never
Beat the storm
To shore
To tell the lies
We're living for
I've carried them
For all these days
My beating heart
My selfish ways
My Dear
Do we become the things
We fear
I've walked on glass
And slept on nails
Built signal fires
And covered trails
My Dear
Do we become the things
We fear
The most
