You might sleep, but you'll never dream Onward! Progress! Or so it seems. You might laugh, but you'll never smile. Come on in and waste away awhile. When dreams of rings of flowers fade and blur Giving way to that familiar ill come over and part your soft pink curtains Where I'm waiting for you still If you'd unlatch the window, If you'd let me lay there on your floor If you'd give me another chance, If you'd forget the pain I caused before No use in saying how I'm sorry So I'm trying not to speak I'll sing in silence, lay beside you With my face there on your cheek My stomach swears there's comfort there In the warmth of the blankets on your bed My stomach's always been a liar- I'll believe it's lies again.

It's the end of the morning What have I done? It's finally getting warmer Oh God what have I done? Prayers for your soul while hoping mine Would leave this awful place sometime Somewhere better with no more pain You won't love him you'll love me again I was the one the one who was always here Fate seeks my soul and it's drawing near I'd die today if you could forgive me, dear I said that anything mattered... words I'd sing you a song I'd love you if I knew how It's too late to hold or kiss you now He wont remember were made perfect somehow "This morning is different" ... words I look down she's asleep in a place she can smile again The world will forget her as she disappears to them I swore I'd love her I'd rather pretend "All these tears are for you" ... words With poison within me and everything still I know now what I have to do (what I never will) I will lift up my eyes to the hills Promises, promises, promises ... words

I have my pictures of you, you don't look back at me A smile I'd almost forgotten, bruises I don't see Never forgive you for a sky turned from gray to black Come out and kiss me, darling I promise I'll kiss you back. A new head on my shoulder, A needle in my ear Every kind word brings new pain Instead of my eyes, Her reflection in the mirror. I have a sickness, but I'm not the only one Even in health ... In each other's arms, they're wasting away Sickened just as I am and crippled with disease A song comes from above I look up -- there's a tree and a small brown bird Even the sparrows have built a nest But we, poor fools, have built nothing What a shame not to know that you're dying Tell us we're dying, tell us again. I have a sickness The sparrows built a nest My crippled, twisted body is swallowed by the earth As my broken head finds rest.

I wrote a four word letter Though I'd lived I hadn't been alive You held my hem but I traveled blind Thought I'd sold my soul for something better The rain came down, it wet my eyes I didn't mind It's not me that you've missed You heard me when I cried "You've seen you've loved a side of me that died" I remember sunshine And you were mine It's still a little cloudy but there's no rain in sight You were mine
