I know that you don't talk a lot
And no one can see through you
But let me use what voice I have
And try to paint your pain

I know that you get lost sometimes
Safe inside your rituals
And maybe trying to wake you up
Is meant to quench my fears

There is a world in earth and flesh
And beauty when you walk it
And it is frightening and dark
But has no place for ghosts

I know you're giving all you have
I know for every morning
Or turn your eyes to little stones
To keep them from the hole

I know you're longing to go back
Back to familiar melodies
To raise a wall of memories
And shut away your thoughts
