The thing I treasure most in life cannot be taken away, there will never be a reason why I will surrender to your advice to change myself, I'd rather die, though they will not understand
The morning grows lighter and still I lie in bed, Thoughts of you, Of the past, Burning, Searing images in my head. Why is it so hard for me to let go, To let be what should not? Who wants to be alone, so cold, When love can be so hot. I've been watching from the darkness, Ever tucked away. I've been craving your light, But have kept quiet, kept at bay. It was there in the past, Burning bright and all a glow. But the world moves on to fast, Burying our fragile hopes in the snow. But like the blessed Hirta returns, With just a splash of rain each year, With a passion burning it yearns, But never grows to it's full potential, Poisoned with fear. So I let it die away, Crying as it slips into the dark. Oh all the things I had to say, Searching for that one spark. That one flame, That one song, Whispered words that started the game. One for which the end I do not long. Nothing ever dies, It's always there. Waiting for a loving ties, To help it reach up to the sky for air. 'What if' 'What if' A question we all ask at one time. But the answer can be so painful, Even when we can block it from our mind. But I will take the bitter answer and stride on, Armed with the knowledge of this riddle. And with this sour taste of Heaven, I will always find the middle. Never here but never gone, Always close but too far to reach. Silent but always with a song, Sailing off into nothing, But never leaving the beach. When you close your eyes at night, Think of me. And know that like wise, I am still lying in bed, thinking Of You.
I won't make the greatest sacrifice, you can't predict where the outcome lies You'll never take me alive
