|
For you I would cross the glass oceans of green |
|
Full of sights best unseen, and the worst kinds of dreams |
|
For you I would pass through deserts of fire |
|
Full of burning and ire, waterless and futile |
|
For you I would brave the disgust of the mob |
|
Walk completely alone, disavow all of them |
|
For you I would give up mountains of gold |
|
And possessions untold, health of body and of soul |
|
But don't ask me to do what the strongest of men |
|
Seeks to kill deep within, trembling sick to his bones |
|
Don't ask me to do what the strongest of warriors |
|
Backs up from the drawbridge and puts down her sword for |
|
Don't ask me to feel the moon on the door |
|
Or the fire on the shore as you bring my ship in |
|
Because the truth is, there is no safe harbor |
|
Because the truth is, there is no safe harbor anymore |
|
The first time I saw you, I felt the knives set in |
|
The first time I saw you, I felt my life cave in |
|
A perfect mirror tells no lies |
|
That's why I shattered you |
|
The truest mirror in my life |
|
A broken mirror cannot tell the truth |
|
That's why I shattered you |
|
I'll pick up shards for all my life |
