lyrics

Wearing thin,
Won't you let it begin?
If not now, will it ever be the right time?
Closing in,
Will it ever begin?
I try, you know that I try

Caged in skin;
My only caveat,
I carry with me, always
Only human,
Confined inside this
Rising feeling in my chest

"Come to me, lay beside."
She beckoned to me,
And I replied,
"Oh, my love, my wrists are tied;
These things take time."

Oh, breath by breath
I'll make my way
On stepping stones
Formed by each day I wait
These lonesome nights
Accompanied by the waves
Of thoughts, so clear
Tending to days, unfilled;
They're, oh, so vacant and far
From your touch, my dear
I'm gaining ground,
But approached by such fear

Dare I open this door,
Or should I leave it untold?
Dare I open this door?
Should I enter at all?
