broken things
I've come to you from broken things I've crawled to you on my hands and knees Sailed to you across the seven seas If only to hear you say my name  I've come to you from broken times I've shown you my face with no disguise My memories a mirror without eyes If only to take away your pain If only to hear you say my name  You're the whispering in the rising wind Empty and so cold too dark for the birds to fly in And they're lined up on the wall And as I'm walking by, they scattered and take off I watch them as they rise into the sun If only you believed you were the one  When the day is new the light is warm Upon the bed the curtain is drawn and torn The shadows forming, falling just behind If only you believed all of my lies  Hanging in my heart just like a flag When I'm lazy the wind, the colors sag As the clouds rolling off the hill Can't tell where the roofs begin and end No more will I know my home again  Hear the whispering in the rising wind Empty and so cold too dark for the birds to fly in They're lined up on the wall As I'm walking by, they scattered and take off I watch them as they rise into the sun  If only you believed you were the one If only you believed you were the one If only you believed you were the one
