lyrics

My throat knots up: this is the last time I will see
quivering lips that still can't put this moment into
words that will pass away like you.
There's so much in eyes that soon will be lifeless
and will never see a reflection they can truly love.
you should've seen what I've seen in you.

Suffering is the birthplace of hope.
Death begs for a resurrection.
You've helped me hold on to my tears,
to preserve all the time they unleash.

(Words) All wrapped up in a meaning too cocooned to free
There are so many threads in a text so tightly knit in
(k)not(e)s that are soon becoming (untangled).
Is this life the book you'd hoped to write?
It's beautiful, a writer written by her own story
—written out by her own story.
