It’s no good pretending
Denying
He almost crushed your soul
With the weight of his wise wise words
Just go on believing
You’re happy
He didn’t cling to you
Like the smoke on his old clothes
Like a wind-up toy
Dead in bed and sick with the grief
All joy stolen by a ruthless thief
Just half a person fading thin air
Late in the night
Late at night when sleep suggested
She stays up through the darkness
With Angels
Waiting in her mind
Like a wind-up toy
Dead in bed and sick with the grief
All joy stolen by a ruthless thief
Just half a person fading thin air
Late in the night
Late at night when sleep suggested
See the fire that is in her eyes
In her eyes
When the demons left her terrified
Terrified
Harsh words result
From lack of intent
What’s wrong with you tonight?
Just half a person fading thin air
Late in the night
Late at night when sleep suggested
