She Speaks to Me

Yeah, let’s start all over
Let’s live a lifetime in the span of moments
Closer, drawing close, but your face only slips further away
Forgive my selfishness
I only want what is rightfully yours
Bite my tongue
I’ll be silent and hope your words will sound like mine
Does my perfection make you weary?
Are my mistake just a waste of time?
Am I just a waste of time?
The path I follow has the tell-tale smell of ashes
Before it all bursts into flames again
I want this life to be worth the the sacrifice
I’ve grown so weary
Why won’t you speak to me?
In the midst of all the heartache look for the roses
When destruction tears the world in two
Can you find the roses?
There must be more than a tear while I’m falling
A memory doesn’t always cut away
No strength to pray for the end
The weeds turn to roses
