shaking in the dark
searching for warmth
beneath the cracks in the plaster
ive been reborn
but with new life comes death
but do not grieve or mourn
when you burn me down to ash
spread my ashes in my lover's garden
maybe i could be sunflowers
and you could
watch me grow
maybe i could be sunflowers
and you could watch me grow
as you let go
and slowly forget my life
the earth continues to turn
its winter all the time inside
i see my breath come out of me
and as i grow older the air just grows colder
with my head up high and hopeful or dead inside and broken
when you left me for those weeks, songs of sepsis sang me to sleep
plastic tray milk box applesauce to eat
and i lost my taste to keep secrecy
the pictures that i keep of me
the mistakes you repeat with me
i wonder if they see me
or if i should be leaving?
and if you want me to believe in a dream
first i have to fall asleep
and if you want me to take a leap
well i'm sorry but you'll never see the day i throw my life away
throw my life away
you'll never see the day i throw my life away
