lyrics

It feels time to, look for a less obvious way, to express my desire to leave again. Pick up and go wherever hope takes. To find it in any place.

Let you down gently, catch your breath in arms thrown wide. Make just one sound, enough to recognise, a call of separation.

Waiting patiently for, just one thing to change. To count up all of my luck, and place it in someone else's hand's. Hope they use it well, instead of waiting. Just go and write, or stare for ages.

If you knew the truth you'd say "help won't make a difference."
Altruism's good but my efforts might add to another's plight.

Whilst looking to find a niche, to best serve my desire, found what I did least expect to find; you care more than I thought.

If you turned to walk away, I know it as expression of your wish to stay.
I won't turn away. Move closer, and say...How it hurts, and why do so few care to listen? I'll take a fall for you, something wants me to.
