Told you in the living room,
The silence full of pain
"i can't hold onto this any longer, and I
Feel I'm the one to blame"
And the days grew long after that
My heart heavy with shame
"Did I do something stupid to you
Something that now can't be replaced"
I die a little more today.
My mind wants to look away.
I try to tell myself it helps me to grow some way
But all I feel is the pain
That things now between you and I have indelibly changed
Then I was in the bedroom
No lover by my side.
"I don't know what to say when I see you"
So I'll stay here and hide
Oh Lord,
I can only turn to you
I've jumped in too deep.
I don't care if it turns out you're not real
I need to find some relief
Now I'm in the garden
With a pen in my hand:
"Dear Friend,
Know that I love you
And
I don't understand
No, I'm just trying to be a man
Who walks upon this land
With a feather in my step
And courage in my eyes
May the truth by on our side
